PHENOMENAL PRAISE FOR THE MYSTERY NOVELS OF #1 "NEW YORK TIMES" BESTSELLING AUTHOR SUE GRAFTON "Exceptionally entertaining...an offbeat sense of humor and a feisty sense of justice."--"San Francisco Chronicle" "Millhone is an engaging detective-for-hire...P.I. Kinsey Millhone and her creator...are arguably the best of [the] distaff invaders of the hitherto sacrosanct turf of gumshoes."--"The Buffalo News" "Once a fan reads one of Grafton's alphabetically titled detective novels, he or she will not rest until all the others are found."--"Los Angeles Herald Examiner" "Millhone is a refreshingly strong and resourceful female private eye."--"Library Journal" "Tough but compassionate...There is no one better than Kinsey Millhone."--"Best Sellers" "A woman we feel we know, a tough cookie with a soft center, a gregarious loner."--"Newsweek" "Lord, how I like this Kinsey Millhone...The best detective fiction I have read in years."--"The New York Times Book Review" "Smart, tough, and thorough...Kinsey Millhone is a pleasure."--"The Bloomsbury Review" "Kinsey is one of the most persuasive of the new female operatives...She's refreshingly free of gender cliches. 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."--"Boston Herald" "What grandpa used to call a class act."--Stanley Ellin "Smart, sexual, likable and a very modern operator."--Dorothy Salisbury Davis "Kinsey's got brains "and" a sense of humor."--"Kirkus Reviews"

Grafton, she began her career as a TV scriptwriter before Kinsey Millhone and the 'alphabet' series took off. She lives and writes in Montecito, California, and Louisville, Kentucky.
