"I" is for Innocent

di Sue Grafton (Autore)

Holt Paperbacks, 2000

The New York Times #1 bestselling series reissued for a whole new generation of readers! Another "IRRESISTIBLE" (Baltimore Sun) novel in the knockout series that introduced detective Kinsey Millhone—and a hot new attitude—to crime fiction, from the award-winning author Sue Grafton. I IS FOR IF . . . Five years ago David Barney was acquitted of the murder of his rich wife, Isabelle. Now, Isabelle's ex-husband, Ken Voigt—who is suing Barney for her estate—is claiming the jury made a fatal mistake... I IS FOR INDICTMENT . . . Enter P.I. Kinsey Millhone, who takes the Barney case over from a former colleague…and comes up with more questions than answers. Why are Mr. Barney's witnesses denying ever having spoken to him? Why did Isabelle have so many enemies—including but not limited to her best friend, Voight's second wife, and her own twin sister? I IS FOR INNOCENT But the most troubling question of all is: Why is it that everything David Barney has to say about his beloved Isabelle still checks out? Now it's up to Kinsey to figure out who's getting away with murder . . . .before she courts her own. As Kinsey comments on the give-and-take by which we humans deal with each other, for better and sometimes for worse, the reader is struck yet again by how acute a social observer Ms. Grafton can be. Frequently funny and sometimes caustic, she is also surprisingly compassionate-- understanding how little in life is purely black and white. Except for murder. Somewhere out there, a killer waits to see just what Kinsey will find out. Somewhere out there, someone's been getting away with murder, and this time it just might turn out to be Kinsey's. "I" Is For Innocent is Sue Grafton in peak form. Fast-paced. Funny. And very, very devious.
