I had fun with this one. I didn't realize how old this series was. I guess I'm just used to James Patterson-style authors who are churning out 3-5 books per year... So it was surprising to me that Grafton had started this series in the 80s. It didn't feel dated, but it took me a few chapters to realize why certain things were as complex as they were - the technology just isn't there yet! The plot was a bit wild - I feel like Kinsey gets away with a lot that probably wouldn't happen in real life. But that's part of the fun of these kinds of books. Excited to read more of these books soon.
