Doing It To Death: A Kendra Clayton Mystery
A 30-year-old murder. A dead ex-con. And a case of mistaken identity.Trouble finds Kendra Clayton once again when a case of mistaken identity lands her smack in the middle of a beef between an ex-con named Dibb Bentley and Lewis Watts—an arrogant, vain lady’s man she can’t stand. Dibb hid something in Lewis’s house before he went to prison three decades ago. Now he’s out. And he wants it back. Only Lewis claims he doesn’t know what it is, let alone where it could be. Then Dibb’s dead body turns up in Lewis’s trunk, and he’s arrested. Lewis begs Kendra to help him. But she’d love nothing more than to walk away. Unfortunately, Kendra can’t turn a blind eye when the evidence against Lewis doesn’t add up. And to make matters worse, she’s become a target herself. To figure out what the killer wants, Kendra must dig into a thirty-year-old murder case revealing the seedy side of her beloved hometown. Doing It To Death is the sixth book in the Kendra Clayton mystery series.

This was actually the best of the series, now I hate that it was the last book.
Kendra Clayton finds herself in the middle of another messy situation mostly because she is so damn nosy and such a busy body, even though she rejects the later summation.
The throwback 70's pimp model by the name of Lewis, finds himself in the middle of getting killed, but being the male damsel in distress. His past antics have brought Kendra right in the middle of nearly getting killed several times. A former running budding, Dibbs Bentley is released from prison, after doing time for in reality a crime he did not commit, in order to vcover up a crime he actually did commit.
The socialites, and spoiled rich kids back in the day ran a sex and robbery ring that wound up getting a man killed, sister committing suicide, the others become doctors, lawyers, professors and other high profile positions.
Who killed whom, why, and when....
Leave it to Kendra to almost get it right, but being persistent that Mason and the police have it wrong.

I couldn’t put it down!
What a happy surprise to find this book in my library as I had forgotten I’d ordered it. And as usual l, Kendra doesn’t disappoint. The plot moved well the characters were slick and cool without being stereotypical. Now, all I need is another book. I’m so waiting for the next installment of Kendra’s adventures.

I want more !
I have read the previous 5 books in this series and this definitely was among the best, from an intriguing storyline to the interwoven themes. I’m sad this was the last one.

AN ADDICTIVE READ!!
Doing it to Death did not dissappoint! When I wanted to put it down, I had to.pick it back up. The author's characters are simple but complex. Just when you think you know you who did it, you don't. The twist and turns are amazing and leaves me wanting more!

I really enjoy this character and her quirky antics. She is nosy as hell, but amusing, smart and compassionate. I'm a fan of her in these books, but in real life, she would probably be annoying.

Great series
I really enjoyed reading this series. Kendra and Mason make a great team. It's too bad that this was the last book.
