The Resource Grafton, Sue, 1940-2017

Description: Sue Grafton was one of the first women to enter the previously all-male world of hardboiled private eye mysteries. Her series character, Kinsey Millhone, who narrates the stories in first person, is a tough, stubborn, but self-assured loner. Kinsey is known for her smart-mouth dialog; there is, however, a dark underlying tone without the explicitly described violence found in traditional hardboiled novels. Plots in this series are puzzles and are filled with the details, sometimes forensic, that Kinsey's inquiries uncover. Start with: 'A' is for Alibi
