R is for Ricochet from Putnam Publishing Group Price: $18.33 Customer Review:  If this book is any indicator, Sue Grafton is trying too hard to maintain her alphabet based series. In this latest installment the central character, Kinsey Millhone, says "In the passing drama of life, I'm sometimes the heroine, but occasionally I'm simply a minor character in someone else's... |

Three Complete Novels: "A" Is for Alibi / "B" Is for Burglar / "C" Is for Corpse from Wings Price: $13.99 Customer Review:  This is the first time I've read anything by Sue Grafton. I see Grafton progressing as a writer. I bought this book no knowing anything about the writer and her A to Q mysteries. I found the first novel - A Is for Alibi a good attempt. I did begin to see Kinsey Millhone as a real person however. Her... |

Q Is for Quarry from Berkley Publishing Group Price: $7.99 Customer Review:  So many authors write decreasingly well as time goes on, no doubt burning out from the pressure to write a blockbuster each year. Sue Grafton is *not* in this category. I thoroughly enjoyed Q is for Quarry and think it is just as good -- and probably better -- than earlier works (which for the most... |

A Is for Alibi (Kinsey Millhone Mysteries (Paperback)) from Bantam Price: $7.99 Customer Review: "A is for Alibi" is the first book in Sue Grafton's alphabet mystery series centring around Kinsey Millhone, and I really enjoyed it. Though it's a very quick read I found this book to be fun, intriguing, and suspenseful. The mystery kept me turning pages, and Kinsey is a wonderful creation,... |

This time she is offered a fee to give a $25,000 cashier's check to a young man named Tony Gahan. The check for the fee bounces and Kinsey is now looking for the man who gave it to her,... |

E Is for Evidence: A Kinsey Millhone Mystery (Kinsey Millhone Mysteries (Paperback)) from Bantam Price: $7.99 Customer Review: "E is for Evidence" is a good example of the fine writing Sue Grafton has been doing since her Kinsey Millhone series debuted in 1982. Any fan of Sara Paretsky's V.I. Warshawski, Karen Kijewski's Kat Colorado, Marcia Muller's Sharon McCone, or Virginia Lanier's Bloodhound series will definitely... |

P Is for Peril from Ballantine Books Price: $7.99 Customer Review: I have read the earlier reviews posted here and wondered what book some of the reviewers read. Although the ending doesn't spell everything out for you, if you read it carefully, all the loose ends have been tied up by then. The final question about who killed Dow Purcell and why he was killed is... |

B Is for Burglar (Kinsey Millhone Mysteries (Paperback)) from Bantam Price: $7.99 Customer Review: So far, I've read up to "D is for Deadbeat" in this series of mystery novels, and as far as the the early books go, I think this is the best one. Grafton's writing style is so matter of fact that the filler parts kind of get boring in her other books, but this one is filled with plot twists and... |

"O" Is for Outlaw from Ballantine Books Price: $7.99 Customer Review: I have read all the Kinsey Millhone books, and I enjoyed this one the most. Kinsey is an endearing character, and Ms. Grafton makes her seem so real, and so likeable. It was really nice to have a book dedicated to her younger life before she became the hard-bitten PI that we know and love. In this... |

N Is for Noose from Fawcett Books Price: $7.99 Customer Review: This is the 14th Millhone book I've read, and it ranks as one of the top 3 or 4. I don't understand all these other reviewers who downplayed it, but for me, this one had it all - great character development, a twisted but believable plotline, danger and action. We know Kinsey is close to the killer... |

L Is for Lawless from Fawcett Books Price: $7.99 Customer Review: I picked up Sue Grafton's "L" is for "Lawless" because I've always loved a good murder mystery. I started with Ed McBain's 87th Precinct series years ago and I've been hooked ever since. Sue Grafton's "alphabet" series were the first mysteries I'd read where the private eye was a woman. She's smart... |

J Is for Judgment from Fawcett Books Price: $7.99 Customer Review: Wendell Jaffe swindled a lot of people out of money and then conveniently disappeared from his boat. The verdict was suicide, but the insurance company that had sold him a half-million dollar insurance policy is not convinced. When 5 years passed, the company was forced to pay the premium to Jaffe's... |

Writing Mysteries: A Handbook by the Mystery Writers of America from Writer's Digest Books Price: $11.89 Customer Review:  A favorite device of the Writer's Digest Books imprint is to collect a couple dozen magazine articles under some organizational headings, add an introduction by a well-known genre name (Sue Grafton, in this case), and publish it as a book. I've found these collections to be uniformly unsatisfying,... |

K Is for Killer (Kinsey Millhone Mysteries (Paperback)) from Fawcett Books Price: $7.99 Customer Review: I've always enjoyed this series of mysteries and have read about 6 of them. I don't expect great literature, but a decent mystery, and because I'm female, I enjoy the writing more than I would a very male-oriented mystery, and it's more down-to-earth. Anyway, I found this book fairly enjoyable and... |

However, she gets tangled up in a most unusual situation, as a virtual hostage in a Latino run auto insurance fraud ring. This is the only alphabet book I have read where Kinsey... |

G Is for Gumshoe (Kinsey Millhone Mysteries (Paperback)) from Fawcett Books Price: $7.99 Customer Review: This is the second novel by Sue Grafton that I have read. Plowing ahead with the series, I found 'G' to be engrossing and chilling. I just couldn't put it down. I enjoyed the double plots. Bringing back Dietz was a stroke of genius as it allows Kinsey to play off of a male version of herself. I see... |
