A long story to end the series featuring Kinsey Millhone as author Sue Grafton died the year the book was first published. I really liked this volume with its suspense-filled search for the truth ten years after teens with their youthful inexperience produce a video documenting a serious sexual assault upon an inebriated, non- consenting victim which starts a downward spiral that leads to death.
This intriguing murder mystery includes the side story of Kinsey's nemesis, Ned, a serial killer of teen girls, and his return to stalk her and his ex-wives as he searches for the tokens (treasures) he left behind that mark each killing.
With the introduction of a homeless couple into her life, the antics are more reminiscent of a Stephanie Plum novel than pure Kinsey. It added a lightheartedness that I don't remember from earlier books in the series. Which maybe is a good thing as we say farewell to Kinsey and Sue. There will be no Z!!
