  <default-description>Although business has been slow lately for P.I. Kinsey Millhone, she's reluctant to take on the case of locating Beverly Danziger's sister Elaine Boldt. It's a small matter that Beverly should be able to handle herself. So why is she enlisting Kinsey's services? Beverly claims she needs Elaine's signature on some documents so that she can collect a small inheritance. But the whole affair doesn't sit well with Kinsey. And if there's something she's learned in her line of work, it's to always follow your instincts... Kinsey's hunch proves true when she begins her inquiries into Elaine's whereabouts and discovers that the attractive widow was last seen in a flashy lynx coat boarding a plane for Boca Raton. But the more Kinsey searches for Elaine the more questions she encounters. 

Is Elaine's disappearance tied in to the brutal murder several months ago of one of her bridge partners? And what happened to Elaine's Persian cat who seems to have also vanished?Things take a turn for the worse when a stranger vandalizes the home of one of Elaine's neighbors and another neighbor turns up murdered. With her reputation and career on the line, Kinsey risks all to find a missing woman and a killer who's waiting in the shadows to strike again...</default-description>

    <body><![CDATA[I've enjoyed Sue Grafton's series of Kinsey Millhone, female sleuth,  for many years. Some of the mysteries are easier to read, staying with the one main theme while others can be confusing with too many stories going on at one time.  Dead bodies do occur although usually not as brutally as in other...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/41242238">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I'm new to this series but like it a lot.  I really like the main character and Grafton writes good page turner detective yarns full of twists and turns and surprises.  The characters are solid and believable and they don't obscure the mystery.  They read fast and are always entertaining.

    <body><![CDATA[I know I read this one, in my goal to make it through the series.  I remember liking it, there some suspense, but nothing like Mary Higgins Clark nightmare suspense.  I read it awhile ago, but can't remember too much, but I enjoyed nonetheless or I wouldn't keep reading them.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[These mysteries are pretty entertaining! I'm enjoying getting to know Kinsey, and I wish she would watch her own back a little more :) The characters are pretty entertaining. I'm thinking about the furrier, some of the neighbors, and of course, her landlord.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Christina had warned me that Grafton was &quot;Tedious&quot;. WOW, she was right. This book was so poorly written, completely unimaginative, and I skipped whole pages just to get through it. I don't think I will be trying anything of hers again any time soon.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I wasn't as bugged by her detailed description of every item imaginable in this book as I was in the first book.  It actually ended up being a nice no brainer read for me.  I'm considering reading more, when I need another no brain required book.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was a nice, easy read.  Pretty much figured out the ending about 3/4 of the way through but there were still a couple of twists.  Nice, non-grisly mystery.  You feel like you're in a bit of a time warp but once you realize this was written in the 80s the lack of technology and the clothing refe...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/39699234">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I'm not entirely sure why I've never gotten into these before.  I think because the first one came out when I was roughly three, I thought I was too far behind to get caught up.  However, a friend has the whole selection, so I'm methodically making my way through them.<br/><br/>I like the main cha...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/27453653">more...</a>]]></body>
