" T " IS FOR THOUGHT PROVOKING September 2, 2008
almost din't buy this book from early reviews but, so glad I kept my faith in Ms. Grafton . I'll not go into story lines as others have done very well at least the 4 or more stars . I think those who didn't like this offering at all are those who don't like facing truths about identity theft and worse senior citizen abuse.
Just remember this, unless you die at a young age , you too will be old one day and those days to that end are fleeting . Just ask your mirror every year . here's hoping we all have better luck then do too many of our seniors who worked all their lives on whose backs this country is made. Better luck to you in the so called " golden years " when you too will become invisible to most of the younger generation except to be ignored or harmed . better abuse laws need be put into place NOW, not later as we have for the children in this country ! Write ON Ms. Grafton !!!!
 A Very Good Mystery August 20, 2008

This book takes place in the later part of the eighties with Kinsey Millhone. She is a woman who had a rough childhood, so she learned how to survive and to manipulate people to get what she wants and needs. Kinsey is hired by neighbor Gus to interview/investigate the woman who applied to be his caregiver. The twist is she uses the name "Solana Rojas" then ends up investigating the real Solana
She then imports her mentally retarded son into Gus's house as an orderly. Not much effort has to be put forth since Gus is a grumpy old man, injured and friendless. Kinsey goes about her day in a casual manner without any guilt of her own dishonesty, making her a great and clever character in this very good mystery.

In the past I couldn't wait to get my paws on a Grafton novel. However, too much time has passed between S and T, and now I find her attempt at still writing in the '80's, well it's not believeable anymore. I too miss the cast of characters from earlier books. Identity theft and nursing home scandals in the '80's?? Not something we heard about then. Just didn't work for me. Glad I didn't buy it.

This was the first novel I had ever read by Sue. Since then I have read at least six. I love the main character and feel as if she is dear friend. The first ones I bought were around this alphabet; Q,R,S then I decided to start from the begining, A, B, etc.
Always a good read July 24, 2008
