Description
It's a hot, humid July night in New York City. Where were you when the lights went out?
As Zapped begins, the Reillys return home from a summer weekend to the loft in Tribeca they are in the agonizing process of renovating and expanding. They are looking forward to a quiet supper on their newly acquired rooftop terrace. But it's not meant to be. While Jack goes to pick up Chinese food, Regan enters their apartment, unaware that a nervous thief, who preceded her by minutes, is hiding in the front closet. A thief who knows about a hidden safe that Regan and Jack have yet to discover. Minutes later, the blackout strikes, and both Reillys are called into action.

A new gallery in SoHo, featuring treasured glass sculptures from all over the world, has been burglarized. As head of the NYPD Major Case Squad, Jack oversees several departments. Art theft is one of them.

PI Regan hears from her best friend, Kit, who is in Manhattan on business. She's been abandoned at a comedy club by a colleague from an insurance convention, Georgina Mathieson, who ran out for a cigarette moments before the blackout struck and never came back. Kit gets a call that Georgina is disturbed and dangerous. Fueled by her rage at a college boyfriend who dumped her, Georgina seeks revenge on unsuspecting young blond men. She was last seen getting into a cab outside the club—with a tall blond. Regan heads the search for Georgina and her potential victim.

Meanwhile, Lorraine Lily, an almost famous actress, returns to New York City the night of the blackout, after spending three months in England doing a play, and is informed by her estranged husband, Conrad Spreckles, that he'd sold his loft to their next-door neighbors, the Reillys. Lorraine had never told him about the hidden safe she'd had installed in the closet. If she doesn't get back what's in there, she's sure her budding career will be ruined.

In Zapped, Clark takes readers on a tour of the city they won't forget and introduces them to a wonderful cast of colorful, eccentric characters whose stories intersect in precarious and often humorous ways during one very dark and hot summer night.

      • content: When the lights go out in Manhattan, mayhem envelopes P.I. Regan Reilly and her husband, Jack, head of the NYPD Major Case Squad. Performing the quirky characters she so deftly created, Carol Higgins Clark leads us on a spirited romp of misadventures on darkened streets. Clark is among the few authors as talented at performing their books as they are at writing them. Humor is her specialty, whether understated or slapstick. With equal ease she captures eccentric gallery owners, bumbling housebreakers, wannabe comics, wacko jilted lovers, pathetic exes, and conniving teens. Regan and Jack Reilly tie all the loose ends into a tidy bow. Clark pulls it all together nicely. R.L.L. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine

      • content: Katherine Kellgren portrays the antics of Regan and Jack Reilly, NYPD Major Case Squad investigators. When the Reillys return home from a weekend getaway, Regan finds a stun gun in their apartment after Jack goes out for a take-out dinner. Little does she know that the thief is still in hiding there. Kellgren perfectly renders his relief when a citywide blackout strikes minutes later. Upon Jack's return, the couple is called out to investigate the theft of glass sculptures from a SoHo art gallery during the blackout. Kellgren also captures the suspense when a friend asks the couple to identify a psychotic who brands blond men before he claims his next victim. The book's coincidences stretch credibility, but the narration is excellent. G.D.W. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine

        March 17, 2008
        Three separate investigations, conducted during a blackout, propel Clark’s diverting 11th mystery to feature PI Regan Reilly (after 2007’s Laced
        ). Soon after Regan and her husband, Jack, head of the NYPD Major Case Squad, return home to Manhattan from a weekend on the Cape, the lights go out across the city. In the darkness, Regan is dismayed to discover an intruder has left behind a stun gun in their apartment, which is undergoing renovations. Hours later, Jack looks into the theft of some unusual glass sculptures from a SoHo art gallery. In addition, the pair become involved in the frantic search for Georgina Mathieson, a psychotic with a track record for branding blond men, before she can claim her next victim. The number of coincidences, including one that allows the heroes to save the day in the nick of time, may be on the high side, but fans of lighter crime fare will be satisfied.
