Book Review: C Is For Corpse

I just finished reading the third book in the Sue Grafton Kinsey Millhone Alphabet Series, "C is for Corpse". As you can tell, these are much easier reads than "War and Peace" was, but I'm really enjoying them.

Synopsis: (from Amazon)

How do you go about solving an attempted murder when the victim has lost a good part of his memory? It's one of Kinsey's toughest cases yet, but she never backs down from a challenge. Twenty-three-year-old Bobby Callahan is lucky to be alive after a car forced his Porsche over a bridge and into a canyon. The crash left Bobby with a clouded memory. But he can't shake the feeling it was no random accident and that he's still in danger…

The only clues Kinsey has to go on are a little red address book and the name "Blackman." Bobby can't remember who he gave the address book to for safekeeping. And any chances of Bobby regaining his memory are dashed when he's killed in another automobile accident just three days after he hires Kinsey.

As Kinsey digs deeper into her investigation, she discovers Bobby had a secret worth killing for--and unearthing that secret could send Kinsey to her own early death…

I sort of liked the attraction that lies between Bobby and Kinsey... throughout these three books, you just want her to find love. Sadly, when Bobby is killed, you feel like all hope is lost. This book was very intriguing... I did not figure it out until right at the end, which is something I love in a book. It always sucks to know exactly what's going to happen two pages into the story. This one keeps you guessing!

Next up, "D Is For Deadbeat"!
