L is for LAWLESS by Sue Grafton ****

I picked it up at a library sale for a buck. The storyline was ok, Kinsey gets caught up with a criminal who is looking for another guys money from a bank robbery about 4 of them carried out when they were teenagers and are now mid 60s.

So this guy Ray went to see his daughter Laura (a bitch) who was black and blue from her boyfriend, who was one of Ray's pals who pulled off the bank heist and he was a traitor, liar and girlfriend beater. There are some scenes that are pretty boring, right after something good happens you get this life long description of the area where they are what is forward, behind them and all around them and if they're wet or hungry or have to pee. All the descriptions were page filler, easy to tell.

So the 90 yr old landloard's 94 yr old brother was marrying the restaurant owner down the street and she barely makes it to the wedding. I just finished Evanovich and both have so many similarities. Both live nearby old men they think are attractive. I'm 65 and boy I can't find ONE guy I'm attracted to so much for that. They both are PI's they both live alone or with a pet, neither cook well, both aren't great at their jobs, someone is always trying to kill them or harm them or whatever.

There must be collusion or I swear same person writes em both. So anyway Kinsey gets out alive but beaten with a baseball bat by Laura the bitch she gets to the wedding on time. If someone cracked me as hard in the head as it sounded she got hit I wouldn't wake up for days if not never. Who can get hit hard in the head with a baseball bat and go to a wedding in 2 days? Must have a steel skull.
