I think I'm done.

I might skip to the end - skim as fast as possible to see what the deal with the car was, but I've had it with Megan Clark.

"The penny is dated 1937, Sergeant. If you look at the change in your pocket, you will find that most of them are only one or two years old. At most, maybe five. Since the car's license plate is for 1938, I am assuming the car and the skeleton are connected. It would be a coincidence if they weren't, don't you think?"

Okay, it's a skeleton, so it's not a recent body, but you're all "I'm smarter than the police" and then you say something like that? Of course, it's a book, so she'll be right, but that's some of the stupidest logic I've heard. Just to (hopefully) prove her an idiot, I went and got the change out of the bottom of my purse. Random change, a good sample. I had 11 pennies.

None within her 1-2 year period. One within the 5 year period. So if only the 1967 penny followed me into a shallow grave, she'd have to conclude I died before I was born.

Argh, this book is so horrible. Who can I pawn it off to? Oooooooohhhhh, maybe I should release it on Book Crossing...
