Descrição
It started with the murder of Kinsey Millhone's sometime drinking buddy, an insurance claims adjuster. But before long Kinsey stumbles onto a massive insurance scam. Going undercover as a wisecracking vamp, Millhone descends into the Los Angeles nether world of machismo and gang hideouts. Her companion, terrified at having crossed the violent crook Raymond Maldonado, is Bibianna Diaz no Girl Scout herself.As the Los Angeles Times notes, this book confirms yet again that Kinsey Millhone is a wonderful character, tough but not brutish, resourceful and sensitive, a fit knight to walk those mean streets with her male predecessors.Herbert MitgangThe latest Millhone mystery is 'H' Is for Homicide. It continues to show the author in strong storytelling form in her Southern California locale....There is a fundamental difference between Ms. Grafton's protagonist and the classic male private detectives. For one thing, there's added tension and a greater sense of danger when her vulnerable heroine is walking down some dark alley, stalking and being stalked. Even more important, Ms. Grafton brings a woman's perspective to her people and their romances....The lady can write. -- New York Times
