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.

I have read books A through V and I enjoyed every one. Was very sorry to hear of her passing.
This is such an enjoyable series. Good mystery, not too bloody.
The whole series A-Y are great reads. Shame the author died before finishing the series because this is a great series.
Love all the alphabet series. So sorry to see Ms. Grafton has left us.
A private investigator opens an old, cold muder case…at the behest of the woman who just spent eight years in prison for the crime.
Ah, I feel like I finally “met” an author to whom I owe many debts. This is just my sort of thing, so I don’t know that I can do a decent review of it. No objectivity. Will be reading more.
This series is where I first learnt to love mysteries written by women with a female leading character.
First in the series – and it is a great series. I love the main character!
Have enjoyed all the ABC mysteries.
Great series, always enjoy her work. Easy to follow.
I’ve read t hem all. I miss Sue Grafton and Kinsey Milhone. Love love love this series.
The wonderful start to an alphabet of books!
Great start to the series.
formulaic, but fun
The beginning of a great story line. Keep it up Ms Grafton
I have read every book Sue Grafton has written, she never fails to create a wonderful mystery story. What I also like about her books, they aren’t blood and guts grizzly stories. Kinsey Millhone is a wonderful character. Sadly Sue Grafton passed away in 2017 so cherish her stories as there won’t be any more.
Great series. I read them all and can’t recommend hihly enough.
This is why I love Grafton!
All of the Sue Grafton books are great
This was the first Book by this author I have read, and I wasn’t impressed. It seemed to lack action or “movement “ in the story.
So sorry author has passed prior to finishing the entire alphabet
