This was a highly unusual, very twisty and intense story. Kinsey's landlord, the dapper and handsome octogenarian Henry asks her to help out a neighbor who is trying to claim Veterans burial benefits for his grandfather who served in WWII and Kinsey thinks it's a piece of cake. Then and old friend of the dead man shows up and twice the decedent's home is burglarized. At that point Kinsey is hooked by her own curiosity, particularly when she catches sight of the potential burglar the second time. What follows is a cross-country car tour of the south, chasing down leads and trying to stay one step ahead of the bad guy. What made the book so good is Kinsey's brilliance in fitting together the pieces of the puzzle to solve the mystery. First figuring out the dead man had been in prison, not at war. And then taking all the clues the dead man left behind to track down the loot. But things don't end up as Kinsey had expected. Fantastic ride through of a mystery tour.
