Publisher's summary

Finding wealthy Elaine Boldt seems like a quickie case to Kinsey Millhone. The flashy widow was last seen wearing a $12,000 lynx coat, leaving her condo in Santa Teresa for her condo in Boca Raton. But somewhere in between, she vanished. Kinsey's case goes from puzzling to sinister when a house is torched, an apartment is burgled of worthless papers, the lynx coat comes back without Elaine, and her bridge partner is found dead. Soon Kinsey's clues begin to form a capital M, not for missing, but for murder: and plenty of it.

A long time favorite!

Judy Kaye IS Kinsey Milhone. Without her as narrator, I would just go back to reading my Grafton books. I have read most of them but this one always sticks out as one of my favorites!

Entertaining book

I really like the Kinsey Milhone series. Although if they ever replace Judy Kaye with a different narrator I won't be listening to this series anymore. She is terrific as Kinsey Milhone.
