A somewhat strange entry in the series

I have been reading a lot of Sue Grafton lately and loving them all. This was the first one that I found I wasn't enjoying as much as the rest. After reading reviews here, I see that I am not alone. It's really quite strange. The main plot is fairly slow moving and not very captivating. I agree with other reviewers who said they liked the subplot with Kinsey trying to find a new office space better. Most of the reviews mention the peculiar ending. This book really needs a better conclusion than what we are given. I can understand Grafton's desire to try something new, but it's odd since it is part of a series and it's really more irritating that anything else because it just doesn't work. I would be curious to hear Grafton discuss this book in detail to better understand her process in writing it.

Kinsey Millhone never sees it coming. She is mired in the case of a doctor who disappeared, his angry ex-wife, and beautiful current one?a case that is full of unfinished business, unfinished homes, and people drifting in and out of their own lives. Then Kinsey gets a shock. A man she finds attractive is hiding a fatal secret?and now a whole lot of beauty, money, and lies are proving to be a fatal distraction from what Kinsey should have seen all along: a killer standing right before her eyes. . . .
