In E is for Evidence, Kinsey's apartment was blown up. So this next one conveniently takes place up the coast from Santa Theresa, in a little coastal town where everyone knows everyone. She stays in a family-run hotel, and the characters are pretty depressing. The son of the hotel owners has escaped from prison where he was serving a term for a murder he still claims he did not commit. Uncovering the truth from an old murder case means Kinsey is revisiting the past. A lot of her interviews happen in this old hotel or in a seedy bar...Still, there's plenty of humor and good thinking and sleuthing here. I missed Henry Pitts and the other Santa Theresa regulars, but it was interesting to go outside the usual venue with Kinsey on this adventure.
My knee is feeling better and my COVID has only left a shadow of a cough. I'm grateful Sue Grafton entertained me so well while I was laid up!
