"T" is for TRESPASS
This is the 20th book in the series and Kinsey Millhone is as sharp and sassy as ever. I just love these books. Am I the only one? Surely not!!
This is one series that I wish I had kept so that I can re-read them. I love all kinds of books, but especially this type of mystery. |

Hi Welcome to 4WT!!! I haven't heard of the author or series. I love reading too. I'm wanting to get started on Eat, Love, Pray by Elizabeth Gilbert, but just haven't had the time yet.

This is from Wikipedia
Kinsey Millhone was born on May 5, 1950. Her unusual first name was her mother's surname before her marriage to Kinsey's father. Kinsey lived with her parents until they were killed in a car wreck when she was five. Kinsey survived in the car for several hours before she was rescued. She then moved in with her aunt (her mother's sister) who taught her how to shoot a gun. In high school, Kinsey hung out with a group of boys who taught her how to swear and smoke dope. After three semesters at the local community college she realized that academic life was not for her and she took a job with the Santa Theresa police force. After two years, Kinsey quit the police force and became an investigator for California Fidelity, an insurance company. Eventually, she became a self-employed private investigator, solving various disappearances and murders, clearing names and dodging hitmen.
Kinsey is 5'6" and weighs about 118 pounds. She has short, dark, thick hair that she trims with nail scissors, being generally disinterested in her physical appearance. She does, however, place a great premium on physical fitness and jogs three miles every day. At the same time, she is an enthusiastic junk food fanatic. Kinsey has been divorced twice but has no children, and she lives in a garage converted into an apartment. Her landlord is a young-at-heart octagenarian named Henry Pitts on whom she has a bit of a crush. She suffers from tinnitus, caused when she shot an attacker from inside a trash can. Kinsey has had several relationships in the series, beginning with Charlie Scorsoni, continuing through Jonah Robb and Robert Dietz, until the present novels in which she's begun an affair with longtime friend Cheney Phillips. Having lived for most of her life with very few family members (for most of the series, her "family" consisted of Henry, her landlord and his siblings, the local tavern owner Rosie, and the generous natured employees in nearby offices), Kinsey received a shock when her cousin Tasha reached out to her. Meeting Tasha and her sister, Lisa for lunch revealed they are very similar appearances. Kinsey and Tasha form a business relationship in "M" Is for Malice. |
