I is for Innocent by Sue Grafton (1992) – BR00135 (2019) – πΈπΈπΈπΈβͺ
Plot or Premise
Kinsey has new office digs with Lonnie the lawyer, and her new case is to help him with a wrongful death case against a guy who skated on a charge of murdering his wife through a peephole in the door.
What I Liked
There are lots of little clues that suggest what is really going on, and Kinsey is following in the footsteps of one of her old PI pals, Morley, who died of a heart attack. Or did he? There’s a sub-crime or two, and Kinsey gets her hands dirty mucking in people’s lives to get to the truth.
What I Didn’t Like
There is a series of interactions with a couple of people who should go out of their way to tell Kinsey to take a hike, and yet they calm down and continue to help her after she explains she’s just trying to help.
The Bottom Line
A decent mystery, not awesome character development for the sub-characters.
