BOOK REPORT...."P" IS FOR PERIL

"P" is for Peril - Sue Grafton

















Product Description(Amazon.com)
She's every lover's feisty girlfriend.
She's every father's courageous daughter.
She's every woman's tough, vulnerable, and spirited alter ego.
She's Kinsey Millhone, familiar to millions of readers around the globe, and she's back in full stride in P is for Peril, her latest venture into the darker side of the human soul. Mordant, mocking, and deceptively low-key, hers is a voice we know we can trust, from a character we've come to love.
Through fifteen novels, Sue Grafton has gone from strength to strength, never writing the same book twice. So it's no surprise that she has taken on new territory in her sixteenth, this time entering the world of noir. It's a world cast in shades of black amid shafts of steel and silver, a shadow land in which the mysterious disappearance of a prominent physician leads Kinsey into a danger-filled maze of duplicity and double-dealing as she taps into the intricacies of a cunning Medicare fraud.
P is for Peril: the novel in which Millhone stakes her life on a thin thread of intuition because the facts glint elusively out of reach and only guesses offer any shot at the truth.

MY THOUGHT:  Although this was a totally different book than usual, it was very good.  Kinsey is looking for clues to find a man who has been missing for 9 weeks.  The police have all but given up.  It like he just dropped off the face of the earth.  But Kinsey keeps digging, collecting clues, and asking questions.  Does she find the missing man?  What happened to him?  I give this book 5.....





This book is for one of my reading challenges......
