What this book is about

Kinsey agrees to help a neighbor's family access a dead WWII vet's pension — and stumbles into a much larger mystery involving old crimes, hidden money, and dangerous people. Grafton's twelfth Kinsey Milhone novel takes the series to new locations and stretches Kinsey beyond her California comfort zone in an entertaining and tightly plotted entry.
