T is for Trespass
English
By (author): Sue Grafton
T is for Trespass is the twentieth in the Kinsey Millhone mystery series by Sue Grafton.
It was like being in the presence of a snake, first hissing its presence and then coiled in readiness. I didnt dare turn my back or take my eyes off of her. I stood very still. I let go of my fight-or-flight defense and decided to play dead. If you run from a bear, it gives chase. Thats the nature of the beast. Likewise a snake. If I moved, she might strike.
When her elderly neighbour Gus has an accident, Kinsey Millhone is relieved when his niece organizes a nurse for him. Verifying a background check on Solana Rojas doesnt turn up anything suspicious. But Kinseys not convinced especially when Gus seems to be getting worse under his nurses tender care.
Realizing that her neighbourly concern isnt going to get her past the front door Kinsey turns to more unorthodox methods to step up her investigation. And gets far more than she bargained for . . .
Not only is Solana not who she seems to be but shes more than able to play Kinsey at her own game. Suddenly the tables have turned and its Kinsey whos on the wrong side of the law . . .
