For a short time at the beginning of this book, I was wondering why I'd decided to revisit Kinsey Millhone quite so quickly. Then the story drew me in and I found it a compellingly GoodRead. Kinsey is visited by a young man, Michael Sutton, who claims to have suddenly remembered, after reading a st...
Michael Sutton hires Kinsey because 20 years ago a four-year-old disappeared and he thinks that as a kid he inadvertently saw where the little girl was buried. The problem is, he can't be sure where it was, and what's even worse, Michael has a strange relationship with the truth. Did he really see s...
U is for Undertow revisits the technique used in S is for Silence, namely, mixing Kinsey's current day narration with the narrative of the past. This is a technique that works well for Grafton.Kinsey is hired by a young man who's memory has been sparked by an article he reads in the paper about an ...
I usually love these books but I found this one to be incredibly boring. Sue Grafton is overly descriptive of every little thing. For example, one of the villains wastes time in a quick mart and she describes every single thing on the shelves. Why? Does the author think that the readers have never ...
Another Sue Grafton classic, the year is 1988 & Kinsey has a case involving a child kidnapping from 1967 where the child never went home. Kinsey learns more secrets from her family's past and more about her childhood than she knew before.
I really liked the way this one unfolded. I also liked the way that Kinsey found out more about her family. I can't wait for V to come out. I can't believe I've caught up to the series!
I have read and loved this series from the beginning. Grafton is one of those authors who seems to take her time and write solid outings for Kinsey. It is so worth the wait between books when the series as a whole is so solid. If you haven't picked up the Alphabet series, go ahead and get A. If you ...
P.I. Kinsey Millhone makes what I calculate must be her 21st alphabetical appearance in this story of a kidnapping gone wrong, and the surfacing of the details twenty years later through the memories of an unreliable witness. In what appears to be an increasingly popular structure, we get the story ...
Extremely disappointing ending. A lot off set-up, very little payoff. It felt rushed and after all that time was spent digging into the non-Kinsey characters, the lack of any real explanation as to why the second girl was taken felt like a cheat.Blargh.
