4.0 out of 5 stars What Mess Does Kinsey Get Herself Into Next?, Jun 13 2004
By J. Kirkman "book jen" (St. Petersburg, FL United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: N Is for Noose Unabridged (Audio Cassette)
In "N" is for Noose, Kinsey is letting herself in for more than she can handle. Selma Newquist lost her husband in an untimely heart attack as he was driving home. Before the event though, Tom Newquist was deeply disturbed about something, and Selma knew he was. But about what, she wondered? So, Kinsey is hired to find out the secrets of what might have really happened, and in so doing, she gets into a lot of trouble. As she digs deeper and deeper, someone has it in for her to make her stop. She gets physically attacked once, but if she doesn't stop her probing, it may happen again.

A good book overall, and worth the reading time.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Kinsey's best outing, April 4 2004
By saliero (NSW Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: N Is for Noose (Hardcover)
By now, Grafton's heroine, Kinsey Millhone, is well established amongst the ranks of female detectives. This book possibly isnlt the best of the series.

I found it a little disappointing in that it plods somewhat and I wasnlt at all guessing to the end - to me the perpetrator stood out a mile off. I found some of the peripheral characters just plain boring.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kinsey Just Keeps Stepping into the Thick of Things, Mar 1 2004
By Beth Saboori (Santa Monica, California) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: N Is for Noose (Mass Market Paperback)
Private eye Kinsey Milhone is a thirty-something, twice divorced, tomboy of a woman, who has been having an on-and-off romance with a fellow detective named Dietz for a while now. She lives and works in fictional, Santa Teresa, California and, though trained as a police officer, she seems to have a knack for making cops of all strips see red.

At the beginning of the story Kinsey is with Dietz, who is recovering from knee surgery. He sends her on to a case involving a former client. It seems a police officer in a northern California town has died of a heart attack. His social climber wife says he was troubled about something before he kicked the bucket, something he wouldn't talk about, and she hires Kinsey to find out.

Of course some bodies start to pile up and Kinsey is in the thick of things and even though I figured out who the killer was well before our intrepid heroine did, it didn't spoil the story for me one bit. I'm a big Sue Grafton fan and as far as I'm concerned, this one is another winner. The book zipped along, the characters, as usual, were great, the plot solid, an outstanding, well written, witty book.
