Publisher Description

In this rich, complex and gripping tale, Kinsey Millhone's grit is tested to its utmost as the private detective unearths the gruesome truth about a long-buried betrayal--and, in the process, comes face-to-face with the grisly fact of her own mortality. "'G' is for guilt and guile, for greed and grief, for the Grim Reaper. And 'G' is for good: very, very good indeed."

"Another excellent addition to this series. Kinsey is strong and determind as usual, but it's interesting to see her get along with the simiar-minded body-guard Dietz - some great clashes along the way there! Also good to see that Kinsey is only human - she ends up with some real, long-lasting physical injuries, and rather than a fake, I-laugh-in-the-face-of-danger attitude, you get some real, believable descriptions of her reactions to the multiple threats on her life. And a great, intruiging mystery to top it all off!"

    " It's been a long time since I've read a Kinsey Millhone novel, and I'd forgotten how well written they are. In this installment, Kinsey accepts a job helping a woman find her mother, and when the mother is killed, the mystery deepens. Also, just to complicate things, while she's working on this mystery a hit man is trying to kill her, and in the midst of all this she falls for her bodyguard. I'm looking forward to "H' is for Homicide; the next in the series. "

    " I like reading these books on my phone, they are easy to read sporadically. I am not sure if it was necessary to introduce Kinsey's long lost family, unless they continue to show up and eventually defrost Kinsey "

    " I think that Sue Grafton is a very talented writer. This book in particular demonstrates her talents at wordsmithery. Also, I thought that the story line was especially excellent in "G." "

    " This was a great mystery. Kinsey is asked to find a elderly mother of a neurotic client. Kinsey also finds out she is being hunted my a psycho hitman. She meets new boyfriend Dietz, a private eye who has been asked to play bodyguard. They work great together: she does what she wants and he mans in out. He's not the best bodyguard in the world because I could figure out how he kept following Kinsey. There is a little too much filler, but I liked the way the story of the mother unfolded. "

    " Another good installment in the Kinsey Millhone series. The mystery in this one was better than most of the others I have read. It was intriguing reading on to see the two mysteries merge in Kinsey's life. The ending was a tad predictable, but it was still worth reading just for fun's sake. "

    " Kinsey as always rocks, but sometimes it gets too cliche-ish near the end where Kinsey gets napped and taken by force to an airport and the heroic rescuer/studly boyfriend is made to toss the gun away. Sound familiar? "
