Kinsey Millhone, private eye, embraces her assignments with relentless fervor, often risking death. Grafton's first three mysteries are celebrated in this abridged combination release. Judy Kaye portrays the feisty Millhone in all Grafton's Alphabet Mysteries for Random House Audio, and for good reason. Kaye depicts the P.I. as gutsy, intelligent, and cynical, with a gusto for appetizing food and a healthy attraction for the opposite sex. Millhone is portrayed as a woman of the '90's whose expert capabilities and reputation are widely respected by cops, clients and, inevitably. . . suspects and criminals. Kaye injects Millhone's persona with wit and a strong passion for justice. She's always successful at "getting her man."
