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.

Signed by author on title page in her uniquely beautiful calligraphic hand. In KINSEY AND ME Sue Grafton has given us stories that reveal Kinsey's origins and Sue's past. KINSEY AND M has two parts: The nine Kinsey stories 1986-93 each a gem of detection; and the And Me stories written in the decade after Grafton's mother died. Together they show just how much of Kinsey is a distillation of her creator's past even as they reveal a child who free of parental interventions read everything and roamed everywhere. But the dark side of such freedom was that very parental distance. The same feisty voice and witty apercus readers fell in love with in A Is for Alibi permeate the Kinsey stories. Those in the And Me section trace a remarkable voyage from anger to understanding from pain to forgiveness. They take us into a troubled family dysfunctional as most families are each in their own way but Grafton's telling is sensitive delicate and ultimately loving. Enriching the way we see Kinsey and know Sue these stories are deeply affecting.

Signed by author Sue Grafton on title page in her unique calligraphic hand. Floral Beach wasn't much of a town: six streets long and three deep its only notable feature a strip of sand fronting the Pacific. It was on that sandy beach seventeen years ago that the strangled body of Jean Timberlake had been found. The people of floral Beach didn't pay a whole lot of mind to past history especially when Bailey Fowler the self-confessed killer had been properly processed and convicted. They weren't even unduly concerned when a year after the murder Fowler walked away from the men's prison at San Luis Obispo never to be seen again. After all everyone knew Jean had been a wild kid. "Like mother like daughter" some said--though never within hearing of Shana Timberlake who whatever her faults still mourned her murdered child. And then by sheer fluke the cops stumbled on Bailey Fowler. And a case seventeen years dead came murderously to life again. For Royce Fowler old and sick with not much time left his son's reappearance was the chance to heal an old wound. For Kinsey Millhone the case was a long shot but she agreed to take it on. She couldn't know then it would lead her to probe the passions buried just below the surface of family relations where old wounds fester and the most cherished emotions become warped until they fuse into deadly soul-destroying time bombs.
