S Is for Silence (Kinsey Millhone Mysteries) - Softcover

Praise for S is for Silence

"One of her best."--The Washington Post Book World

"The freshest, tautest installment in quite a while...S is for Silence gets it right."--Entertainment Weekly

"One of the darkest and most complex of her stories."--The Miami Herald

"Strong character portrayals...and a stunning climax."--Booklist

"Millhone's complexity is mirrored by the novels that document her cases: books that nestle comfortable within the mystery genre even as they prod and push its contours."--The Wall Street Journal

More Praise for Sue Grafton and the Alphabet Series

"I'm going to miss Kinsey Millhone. Ever since the first of Sue Grafton's Alphabet mysteries, A Is For Alibi, came out in 1982, Kinsey has been a good friend and the very model of an independent woman, a gutsy Californian P.I. rocking a traditional man's job...it's Kinsey herself who keeps this series so warm and welcoming. She's smart, she's resourceful, and she's tough enough to be sensitive on the right occasions."--New York Times Book Review

"The consistent quality and skillful innovations in this alphabet series justify all the praise these books have received over the past 35 years."--Wall Street Journal

"A superb storyteller."--Publishers Weekly

"Grafton's endless resourcefulness in varying her pitches in this landmark series, graced by her trademark self-deprecating humor, is one of the seven wonders of the genre."--Kirkus Reviews

"Grafton is a writer of many strengths--crisp characterizations, deft plotting, and eloquent dialogue among them--and she has kept her long-running alphabet mystery series fresh and each new release more welcome than the last."--Louisville Courier-Journal

"[Grafton's] ability to give equal weight to the story of the detective and the detective story sets her apart in the world of crime fiction."--Richmond Times-Dispatch
