Blurb (from Amazon): "I IS FOR IF . . .

"Five years ago David Barney was acquitted of the murder of his rich wife, Isabelle. Now, Isabelle's ex-husband, Ken Voigt―who is suing Barney for her estate―is claiming the jury made a fatal mistake...

"I IS FOR INDICTMENT . . .

"Enter P.I. Kinsey Millhone, who takes the Barney case over from a former colleague…and comes up with more questions than answers. Why are Mr. Barney's witnesses denying ever having spoken to him? Why did Isabelle have so many enemies―including but not limited to her best friend, Voight's second wife, and her own twin sister?

"I IS FOR INNOCENT

"But the most troubling question of all is: Why is it that everything David Barney has to say about his beloved Isabelle 
still checks out? Now it's up to Kinsey to figure out who's getting away with murder . . . .before she courts her own."

Opinion: The changes in Kinsey's speech when talking with people seemed kinda off in this one-like she would jump personalities and not even when it was appropriate. Still overall a good mystery that had an exciting ending.
