THE FINAL INSTALLMENT IN SUE GRAFTON’S ALPHABET SERIES WINNER OF THE ANTHONY/BILL CRIDER AWARD FOR BEST NOVEL IN A SERIES Private investigator Kinsey Millhone confronts her darkest and most disturbing case in this #1 New York Times bestseller from Sue Grafton.In 1979, four teenage boys from an elite private school sexually assault a fourteen-year-old classmate—and film the attack. Not long … classmate—and film the attack. Not long after, the tape goes missing and the suspected thief, a fellow classmate, is murdered. In the investigation that follows, one boy turns state’s evidence and two of his peers are convicted. But the ringleader escapes without a trace.
Now, it’s 1989 and one of the perpetrators, Fritz McCabe, has been released from prison. Moody, unrepentant, and angry, he is a virtual prisoner of his ever-watchful parents—until a copy of the missing tape arrives with a ransom demand. That’s when the McCabes call Kinsey Millhone for help. As she is drawn into their family drama, she keeps a watchful eye on Fritz. But he’s not the only one being haunted by the past. A vicious sociopath with a grudge against Millhone may be leaving traces of himself for her to find…

Not as good as the rest of the series.
Great & fun!!
Sue Grafton has done it again. What will she do when she runs out of letters of the alphabet?
loved it
Same old, same old…Kinsey needs a life!
Love Kinsey and am so sad there’s only one letter left!
The last 2 weren’t as good as all the previous in my opinion
Love the book, love the author
I have read all the books in this series and always look forward to the next installment. I will be sad to see the series end most likely with the next book since these were all bases on the alphabet and there is only one letter left. Hopefully the end will be a happy one for the main character and not a tragic one.
Can not wait until the next book!
Love anything by Sue Grafton!
A great read. I have read all of Grafton’s A to Y books and wait to discover what the “Z” will be for!
Enjoyable read in Sue Grafton’s series.
I’m gonna miss this series. I’ve been a fan from the letter A!
One of the better books in this series.
Love this series. Sorry to see it end. Original idea, setting it in the eighties. Mystery solving without the benefit of computers and smartphones. Good old fashion detective work. The characters are colorful and delightful. I recommend reading every one of them, from A-Z
It’s not that this isn’t a fun read, it’s just that it is the usual fare for Sue Grafton. Good thing there is only one more in the series!
Not Sue Grafton’s best. I’ve always enjoyed her stories, but did not like the back and forth of two different decades.
Not up to Grafton’s usual standards. Convoluted and it didn’t take a whole book of obscene language to carry the plot and depict the adolescent personality.
Not one of her best. Characters were unlikable people, plot line negative and evil…finished story but had no sense of satisfaction.
I loved it. I’m sorry that there will be only 1 other book in the series. I have read and enjoyed every one of the books. Kinsey is my favorite detective.
