Book Description:
How do you prove the innocence of a man already found guilty of murder?
That's the task Kinsey Millhone is faced with when she takes on the case of Bailey Fowler. These are the facts: Jean Timberlake, Bailey's girlfriend, was found dead on the sands of Floral Beach, California, seventeen years ago. Bailey, drug addict and convicted felon, with no good alibi, was sent to the slammer - even though he swore he didn't do it. After escaping less than a year before, he successfully disappeared until he was picked up on a fluke of mistaken identify. Can Kinsey prevent him from being sent back to prison by finding the real killer? And what kinds of deadly passions and murderous intentions will she stir up as she searches for the truth?

Everyone knew the kind of girl Jean Timberlake was - ask anybody in the sleepy surf town of Floral Beach and they'd say Jean was wild, looking for trouble. But she certainly wasn't looking for murder. She was found dead on the beach seventeen years ago, and a rowdy ex-boyfriend named Bailey Fowler was convicted of her murder and imprisoned - and then Bailey escaped. Now private eye Kensey Millhone steps into a case that should never have closed, in a town where there's no such thing as a "privite" investigation.

Though the ending was fairly obvious to me personally, the middle gunked it up and by the time it ended I'd second-guessed myself. The reveal of the murderer was tense, exciting even though I'd guessed it - I loved every minute of it! A real page-turner.
Another great in Sue Grafton's series!
This is a very good book, it kept me you on the edge of my seat.
Gloria D. from PORT ORANGE, FL wrote on 4/12/2007...Good story line. Sue Grafton knows how to tell a story
Sue Grafton is one of my all-time favorite authors and I love her Kinsey Millhone series more than any other mystery series out there. "F" is a great ride through the past with murder, mystery, illicit relationships and the ever-constant Kinsey in search for the truth. This is a great book and anyone who enjoys this series will find that this is one of the best.
Kinsey does it again! She solves a 16 year old mystery. She is the woman!
I have read several of Sue Grafton's books and they just keep getting better.
A great Sue Grafton novel. Kinsey is my favorite P.I.
Betty C. from JOPPA, MD wrote on 2/24/2007...Female detective Kinsey Millhone sets out to clear a man's name who has served time for the murder of a teenage girl. Aong the way three more murders are committed before Kinsey can solve this one. Surprise ending.
