D is for Deadbeat by Sue Grafton
Adult Mystery
Kinsey's new client doesn't last long. He appears in the first chapter but he makes a big impression. Somewhere along the lines of $25,000 worth! Kinsey is supposed to deliver the money to a young man but that proves pretty difficult because the young man doesn't want the money and a lot of other people do.
I liked this one the best so far. The ending was an absolute stunner for me. I never saw it coming! (Doesn't that make for the best mysteries?) I really like the character of Kinsey. At first her demeanor was off putting--she's so emotionless and clinical and dry. Of course, those are also the qualities that make for such a good detective. Needless to say, I'm in this for the long haul and can't wait to see what Kinsey comes up with next.
