Signed by author on title page in her uniquely beautiful calligraphic hand. In what may be her most unsettling novel to date Sue Grafton'sT IS FOR TRESPASS is also her most direct confrontation with the forces of evil. Beginning slowly with the day-to-day life of a private eye Grafton suddenly shifts from the voice of Kinsey Millhone to that of Solana Rojas introducing readers to a chilling sociopath. Rojas is not her birth name. It is an identity she cunningly stole an identity that gives her access to private caregiving jobs. The true horror of the novel builds with excruciating tension as the reader foresees the awfulness that lies ahead. The suspense lies in whether Millhone will realize what is happening in time to intervene. Though set in the late eightiesT IS FOR TRESPASS could not be more topical: identity theft; elder abuse; betrayal of trust; the breakdown in the institutions charged with caring for the weak and the dependent. It reveals a terrifying but all-too-real rip in the social fabric. New. pristine unreadfirst edition first printing in flawless new mylar-protected dust jacket.
