T Is for Trespass

A Kinsey Millhone Mystery

By: Sue Grafton

Narrated by: Judy Kaye

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 dependent–targets 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.©2007 Sue Grafton; (P)2007 Random House, Inc. Random House Audio, a division of Random House, Inc.

She did it again!!

Could not wait to get it and listened to it all in one day. Kinsey is full of spunk her character is full of life. The narrator is great the characters are all too real. Now for U is for ?? can't wait, keep up the good work!! Love audible books. Why listen to music with so many great stories to consume.

Newbie to this series

I listened to the entire book, but I have to admit that I was bored. It only really got good the last 15 minutes. I thought the book was going to be different. I didn't realize it was a "series" until after I bought it. I'm sure if you liked her other books, you'll love this one. But I won't be buying anymore.

worth the wait

It has been such a long time between books. However, this was truly a good "read". I love Kinsey. This was a different spin going from Kinsey's perspective to Solana's. I can't wait for the next in the alphabet series. I will probably go back and reread the past books.

Great!

Judy Kaye is such a wonderful reader, she can even make "I-who-hates-McDonald's" crave a "QP with cheese" LOL. This is a very clever story and it is nice that Grafton gives enough hints to make it fun to figure out what will happen next, without making it too easy (and consequently boring). I'm 2/3 through and already wishing the book was longer!

Best Grafton Ever!

This book knocks all her others out if the park! looking forward to what the next book holds.
