More Praise for Sue Grafton and the Alphabet Series

I'm going to miss Kinsey Millhone. Ever since the first of Sue Grafton's Alphabet mysteries, A Is For Alibi, came out in 1982, Kinsey has been a good friend and the very model of an independent woman, a gutsy Californian P.I. rocking a traditional man's job...it's Kinsey herself who keeps this series so warm and welcoming. She's smart, she's resourceful, and she's tough enough to be sensitive on the right occasions. --New York Times Book Review

The consistent quality and skillful innovations in this alphabet series justify all the praise these books have received over the past 35 years. --Wall Street Journal

A superb storyteller. --Publishers Weekly

Grafton's endless resourcefulness in varying her pitches in this landmark series, graced by her trademark self-deprecating humor, is one of the seven wonders of the genre. --Kirkus Reviews

Grafton is a writer of many strengths--crisp characterizations, deft plotting, and eloquent dialogue among them--and she has kept her long-running alphabet mystery series fresh and each new release more welcome than the last. --Louisville Courier-Journal

[Grafton's] ability to give equal weight to the story of the detective and the detective story sets her apart in the world of crime fiction. --Richmond Times-Dispatch
