In Jinxed, smart, saucy sleuth Regan Reilly faces a new challenge—the case of the missing wedding guest. Regan, an L.A.-based private detective, returns to her office after a vacation with her beau, Jack "no relation" Reilly. Their tour of the wineries in Napa Valley and Santa Barbara County is cut short when Jack has to fly back to New York City, where he is the head of the Major Case Squad of the NYPD. Their last stop had been at Altered States, a run-down winery owned by three siblings who are all former hippies—Lilac, Earl, and Leon Weldon. Not knowing how soon it would be put to use, Regan leaves her business card behind.

Within minutes of being back to work, Regan gets an excited call from Lilac. The Weldon family has been invited to the wedding of ninety-three-year-old Lucretia Standish, a former silent-screen star. Lucretia's maid, Phyllis, clues Lilac in on the fact that Lucretia plans to give the Weldons $2 million each—if they all show up at the wedding. The wedding is two days away, and there is only one problem: Lilac's daughter, Whitney, a.k.a. Freshness, a young actress, has taken off on one of her go-with-the-flow weekends. Whitney is out of touch and goes where the wind blows. If it doesn't blow her back into town by Sunday morning, the Weldon family will be out $8 million.

Regan's job is to find Whitney. But unbeknownst to Regan, there's someone else on the hunt. Lucretia's fiancé, the much younger Edward Fields, has hired an accomplice in crime to locate Whitney and keep her away from the wedding. He wants to say "I do" to Lucretia and her millions before Whitney can protest. When Edward finds out that Regan Reilly has been hired to find the missing Whitney, he gives the order to get rid of her as well.​ ( )

Regan Reilly and her boyfriend Jack went on a vacation to southern California wine country to stay at a winery called Altered States. Jack, a police detective, was called back to NYC to work on a case. Regan is hired by the winery owner to find her missing daughter. It seems that an eccentric elderly great aunt is getting married and she wants the whole family in attendance. Whitney reappears, but the day before her great aunt's wedding, Whitney disappears again. Regan once again has to sort everything out before someone gets killed. It was a fun goofy light read. ( )

Regan Reilly is hired by the owners of Altered States winery to track down one of the owners daughters, Whitney Weldon. Whitney is an actress who is working on a movie but has taken off for a relaxing weekend. Whitney's family wants her to show up at their aunt Lucretia's wedding so they will all get a share of her fortune. As is typical is Carol Higgins Clark books a wide array of characters is brought into the story. There isn't much of a mystery here but the book is lighthearted fun. ( )
