Title: Kinsey works on two cases at once
Review: Kinsey Millhone is hired to investigate the disappearance of nursing home executive Dr. Dowan Purcell by his ex-wife Fiona. He is married to a woman named Crystal at the time of his disappearance. Kinsey investigates several motives, including some shady financial dealings at his work and an unhappy marriage. A second plot revolves around Kinsey's plans to rent office space from two brothers, who are hiding a grisly secret. The search for Dr. Purcell occupies most of the book, and Kinsey finds a lot of dead ends as she investigates his family and business connections. The relationship with the two brothers is more suspenseful but that subplot ends in a rather [bad] and unsatisfying manner. The solution to the disappearance of Dr. Purcell moves very slowly until the end, when Kinsey has a sudden revelation, seemingly something she had not considered during her investigation. Though not the best book of the series, this one is still a good read.
