Background
Published in 1987, “D” is for Deadbeat is the fourth installment of Sue Grafton’s Alphabet Series. The protagonist is Kinsey Millhone. A no nonsense private investigator who solves crimes while only occasionally bending the rules.
This book starts with Kinsey trying to collect on a bad check she was written. The man writing the check ended up dead and you wouldn’t believe who killed him…
My Thoughts
A pretty good read all and all. I liked how there were just some things that the protagonist just couldn’t fix. Life is like that sometimes and it is good to see a written work struggle with those issues.
Recommendation
A good read but not for the kids.
