READ THE SENSATIONAL BLOCKBUSTER THAT STARTED IT ALL! Take it from the top in #1 New York Times bestselling author Sue Grafton’s knockout thriller that introduced detective Kinsey Millhone–and a hot new attitude–to crime fiction… A IS FOR AVENGER A tough-talking former cop, private investigator Kinsey Millhone has set up a modest detective agency in a quiet corner of Santa Teresa, … agency in a quiet corner of Santa Teresa, California. A twice-divorced loner with few personal possessions and fewer personal attachments, she’s got a soft spot for underdogs and lost causes.
A IS FOR ACCUSED
That’s why she draws desperate clients like Nikki Fife. Eight years ago, she was convicted of killing her philandering husband. Now she’s out on parole and needs Kinsey’s help to find the real killer. But after all this time, clearing Nikki’s bad name won’t be easy.
A IS FOR ALIBI
If there’s one thing that makes Kinsey Millhone feel alive, it’s playing on the edge. When her investigation turns up a second corpse, more suspects, and a new reason to kill, Kinsey discovers that the edge is closer–and sharper–than she imagined.

“A” is where to start in this series by Sue Grafton but don’t stop there The stories and characters are so wonderful you will want to work your way through to “Y”
Sadly, the Sue’s alphabet ends with “Y” . You are and will be missed!!
The first appearance of Kinsey Milhoune.
Although I read this book a long time ago, it started me on the reading all of her books. They are definitely page turners. I spent more than one night reading up to the wee hours of the morning because I couldn’t put the book down.
I love this book. Sue Grafton was a wonderful writer.
A terrific series
First of her 26 books. You can see the gems which will be in the next 25.
I love all the alphabet mysteries in this series.
PI and former cop Kinsey Millhone isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but she is a determined investigator who works her way to the truth. She’s witty, eccentric and has a boatload of issues, but she is great at what she does!
Just couldn’t get into the book. Started fast, but then the story line seemed to stall to a snail pace. I read to the end because I did want to know how the story ended. I love series books and following a character but this character was too flawed, drinks too much, whines too much.
I’ve read all of the Kinsey Milhone books but this one is still my favorite.
We shall miss Kinsey Millhone and her creator, Sue Grafton. ~
Sophomoric—A waste of time
I will read anything by Sue Grafton. I wish there were more books on the horizon.
I have read the whole series to Y and am heartbroken that she passed. I was looking forward to Z and then another series.
I love all of her books
Just buy it. 🙂
Most enjoyable series!
Start here and read them ALL
Best mystery series ever. Start with A and keep going thru Graftons delicious alphabet!
Loved this book. It is the first book I have read of. Sue Grafton’s books. I will definitely read more of her books!!!
