5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Millhone book yet, 16 Nov 2000
By Mrs. K. A. Wheatley "katywheatley" (Leicester, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I love the way Grafton takes unpromising material and makes it so thrilling. A routine fire insurance claim turns into a multiple murder investigation in which Millhone finds herself close to death. Kept me on the edge of my seat.

5.0 out of 5 stars E Is for Evidence, 24 Oct 2005
By Rich Milligan (Thatcham, Berkshire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
"E is for Evidence" is an explosive addition to the Kinsey Millhorne series of alphabet mysteries and proves to be another close shave with death for the plucky adventurous Ms Millhorne.

Just a couple of days before Christmas, Kinsey is given some routine insurance work to do. The work comes her way from California Fidelity, the insurance company from whom Kinsey rents her office space. The work seems fairly routine; they want her to check out a fire claim that has just been lodged by a manufacturer of industrial furnaces called Wood/Warren. Kinsey remembers she went to school with one of the Wood children, Ashley, and the job seems like an ideal opportunity to catch up with some old friends.

What causes the case to take a turn for the worst is the news Kinsey receives just after Christmas when a $5,000 deposit is made into her bank account, when this is quickly followed by accusations that she is taking "back-handers" from the Woods it would seem that Kinsey has been well and truly set up by someone. As usual it takes all of Kinsey's bravery and intuition to discover what's really going on between the warring factions of the Wood family, an investigation which causes the death of one of the Wood siblings and nearly claims Kinsey's own life.

This is a great book to the series, not just for the mystery side of the story but this fills in some huge blanks in Kinsey's former life as we are introduced to her second husband, the musician and apparently the most beautiful man Kinsey has met, Daniel. We do learn though of the self-destructive nature of Daniel's character and at least his reappearance confirms to Kinsey she was correct to divorce him.

There's not much of Rosie, Jonah Robb and Henry in this book, but with the appearance of Daniel, they are not missed really from a story point of view. What their absence does confirm though is perhaps the lonely life of solitude that Kinsey revels in, isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Some great poignancy here and the feelings of a lonely Christmas gives the book a lovely melancholy touch. What will Henry say when he returns from holiday and seems what has become of the garage he rents to Kinsey?

5.0 out of 5 stars Up to her usual standard, 27 Nov 2009
By D. Shields - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Sue Grafton has hit on a great formula and I don't use that term in a derogatory way. She sets up the story in detail and with humour and humanity. Our heroine, Kinsey, is someone who grows on you book by book and does silly things as well as clever ones showing endearing traits as well as frustrating ones. The writing is good with varied pace and doesn't involve tracts of technical detail. So if you don't know the books, this will be atreat for you and you needn't start at A and work through them, though having read one, I tried to do this. Each stands alone and gives you an interesting detective story with thriller elements and witha realistic and sympathetic heroine, and one with whom both women and men can identify with little trouble.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great story as ever by Sue Grafton. thanks
The Sue Grafton books always hold the listener spellbound as the plot unfolds. Each book has it's own trail often quite a surpising twist and always so well read by Lorreli King.
