Search - E is for Evidence (Kinsey Millhone, Bk 5)

Good, quick read. Suspenseful right to the end.

Grafton does it again! This book follows Kinsey Millhone on another adventure, but this time Kinsey is doing the work for herself. She is being framed and doesn't know why. But, as always, she finds out and gets her man!

I liked this one best of the 5 I've read thus far. The extra detail didn't seem to go on as long any more, often just enough to give you a clear picture in your mind instead of cause your mind to wander. The mystery kept me in thrall until the very end, when it all came together in a surprise ending. Kinsey is still a workaholic, but has begun to reevaluate her life and actually thinks about things other than work and her caseload now. :)

At the beginning, I thought it would bother me that Kinsey was framed to look as if she was on the take, because usually when this happens in a story, all the other characters operate under the false assumption that she's guilty, automatically believing the frame without taking into account that she wouldn't do this, and in the long run it really screws with everything else in the story. It's really a pet peeve of mine... Instead, Kinsey and most of the other primary characters worked to find out what was really going on and who had set her up, which led to a much deeper and intricate plot to be uncovered.

This story is much better then the last "alphabet" mystery I read. The sene is set w/ an industrial explosion, and the turn of events keeps you wondering "who done it". In the end, of course, you never saw it coming and the most unlikely of characters has preformed the deadliest of deeds. Hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.

Another great in Sue Grafton's series!

Enjoyed the book. Great series. Sue Grafton gets you really into the character

Another good one by Sue Grafton

A quick & enjoyable detective story. Not my favorite of Grafton's alphabet stories, but a fun read nonetheless.

Book was great, just wish it could have been a little longer.

From back of book:

'E' is for evidence: evidence planted, evidence lost.'E' is for ex-lovers and evasions, enemies and endings. For Kinsey, 'E' is for everything she stands to lose if she can't exonerate herself; her license, her livlihood, her good name. And so she takes on a new client: namely, Kinsey Millone, thirty-two and twice divorced, ex-cop and wisecracking loner, a California private investigator with a penchant for lost causes--one of which, it is to be hoped, is not herself.

I love the entire Sue Grafton series.... murder mysterys with a human possible twist.

Another great Grafton thriller, and who can resist her. I cannot. Enjoyable as usual. Her books are just good reading in my opinion.

Kinsey is framed...by whom? why? How does she get out of this jam?!
