Kinsey Millhone and her creator...are arguably the best of [the] distaff invaders of the hitherto sacrosanct turf of gumshoes." --<i>The Buffalo News</i> <p/>"Once a fan reads one of Grafton's alphabetically titled detective novels, he or she will not rest until all the others are found." --<i>Los Angeles Herald Examiner</i> <p/>"Millhone is a refreshingly strong and resourceful female private eye." --<i>Library Journal</i> <p/>"Tough but compassionate...There is no one better than Kinsey Millhone." --<i>Best Sellers</i> <p/>"A woman we feel we know, a tough cookie with a soft center, a gregarious loner." --<i>Newsweek</i> <p/>"Lord, how I like this Kinsey Millhone...The best detective fiction I have read in years." --<i>The New York Times Book Review<br></i> <p/>"Smart, tough, and thorough...Kinsey Millhone is a pleasure." --<i>The Bloomsbury Review</i> <p/>"Kinsey is one of the most persuasive of the new female operatives...she's refreshingly free of gender clichés. Grafton, who is a very witty writer, has also given her sleuth a nice sense of humor--and a set of Wonder Woman sheets to prove it." --<i>Boston Herald</i> <p/>"What grandpa used to call a class act." --<i>Stanley Ellin</i> <p/>"Smart, sexual, likeable, and a very modern operator." --<i>Dorothy Salisbury Davis</i> <p/>"Kinsey's got brains <i>and</i> a sense of humor." --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>#1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author<b> Sue Grafton</b> (1940-2017) entered the mystery field in 1982 with the publication of<i> 'A' Is for Alibi</i>, which introduced female hard-boiled private investigator, Kinsey Millhone, operating out of the fictional town of Santa Teresa, (aka Santa Barbara) California, and launched the bestselling Kinsey Millhone Alphabet Mysteries.
