E comme Explosif / E is for Evidence (Kinsey Millhone Mystery)

Her attention to detail and realistic portrayal really pulled me in. I wonder what research or experiences influenced her approach to writing a private investigator.

The resolution wrapped up neatly, but I was surprised by how fast everything came together. Was that a deliberate choice to keep the pace brisk or just coincidence?

The era and location felt so vivid, almost like a character itself. I'm curious whether Sue Grafton drew from personal experience or extensive research for the backdrop.
