Well, there isn’t too much to say that I haven’t already said in my reviews for the first three books in this series. It’s an entertaining mystery series about a no nonsense private eye solving crimes. I can’t say much about the plot without spoilers, but I do enjoy this series. It’s interesting enough to keep me engaged, but not overly taxing to read. They are great in-between reads for when I want something fast and gritty. If you like the first books, then you will enjoy D is for Deadbeat as well!

I really liked this installment. There were some twists and turns, and the ending wasn't entirely predictable. I liked the mild romance and that it was more of a side note than a staple for the plot.

E is for evidence ; F is for fugitive

D is for Deadbeat is the fourth in the Kinsey Millhone mystery series by Sue Grafton. My name is Kinsey Millhone. I’m a private investigator . . . female, single and self-employed, with a constitutional inability to work for anyone else. I’m a purist when it comes to justice, but I’ll lie at the drop of a hat. Inconsistency has never troubled me . . . It was late October, the day before Halloween. He introduced himself as Alvin Limardo. The job he hired Kinsey to do seemed easy enough . . . until his cheque bounced. His real name was Dagett. John Dagett. Ex-con. Inveterate liar. Chronic drunk. And dead. The cops called it an accident – death by drowning. Kinsey wasn’t so sure. The man, it seemed, had a lot of enemies . . .
