Publisher Description

tres•pass 'tres-p  s n: a transgression of law involving one’s obligations to God or to one’s neighbor; a violation of moral law; an offense; a sin –Webster’s New International Dictionary (second edition, unabridged)

In what may be her most unsettling novel to date, Sue Grafton’s T is for Trespass is also her most direct confrontation with the forces of evil. Beginning slowly with the day-to-day life of a private eye, Grafton suddenly shifts from the perspective of Kinsey Millhone to that of Solana Rojas, introducing listeners to a chilling sociopath. Rojas is not her birth name. It is an identity she cunningly stole, an identity that gives her access to private care-giving  jobs. The true horror of this novel builds with excruciating tension as the listener foresees the awfulness that lies ahead. The wrenching suspense lies in whether Kinsey Millhone will realize what is happening in time to intervene.

T is for Trespass–dealing with issues of identity theft, elder abuse, betrayal of trust, and the breakdown in the institutions charged with caring for the weak and the dependenttargets an all-too-real rip in the social fabric. Grafton takes us into far darker territory than she has ever traversed, leaving us with a true sense of the horror embedded in the seeming ordinariness of the world we think we know. The result is terrifying.

"Kinder, gentler crime fiction? In the mode of Barbara Vine/Ruth Rendall it the story thats king in this book. No gun play, car chases or body count until the last 30 of its almost 400 pages. And these seem almost incidental. The one for sure death is almost a cartoonish afterthought. I'm not complainig because I love a good story and Grafton has her female P.I. outsmart an equaly smart but deviant elder caregiver. Not the usual subject for a crime novel but increasingly famliar and gripping as the tale evolves. Though sometimes long on descriptions of the California place settings and the constant references to the "cold"...knowing she means 50 degrees as I trundle through the 20s each day...still the events unfold swiftly and the pages kept turning. Not an overly complicated plot but just the tonic to take along for the plane ride out of the frozen tundra that is the Northeast nowadays...."

    " I stopped reading the Millhone series about 12 years ago, back when it was at H or I. I picked this one up on a whim, and the characters and style came swimming back to me, but fresh from the break. Fun for summer reading! "

    " I hadn't read one of Grafton's ABC mysteries for quite a while and enjoyed getting caught up with the series! I sometimes get messed up by the stories being based in the 1980's...I will often yell at Millhone: "Hey, goof-ball...use your cell phone!!!" duh! "

    " Sue Grafton books are what I think of as light enjoyable entertainment and I feel confident, that it was her intent. She hits the mark with this one also. She always manages to have just the right amount of humor and suspense. I recommend T is for Trespass. "

    " Sue, I love Kinsey. But why did you set these in the 80s? They really seem dated now. Otherwise, a cracking good read. "

    " Favoured author, but starting to find her pace of story slowing down. Might leave her for a while. That said, topical and thought provoking theme. Would prefer her to re-engage in some personal relationships again... "

    " Avoid. Disappointing. No mystery, just a "suspense" thing--will she catch the culprit--who we learn about almost immediately--or not. Reads like a public service announcement about elder abuse, doesn't read that well, and there's no freakin' mystery! "
