Q is for Quarry

So, I do recommend this book by Sue Grafton if you like a mystery set in the California desert:  Q is for Quarry by Sue Grafton  -- based on an unsolved Santa Barbara crime. Grafton, after seeing the file arranged for the still unknown victim to be buried with dignity and then set about writing a fictional account of what could have been. Not going to change your life, but a fun beach read, which is where I finished it.
