HTML:<p><b>Of #1 <i>New York Times</i>–bestselling author Sue Grafton, NPR's Maureen Corrigan said, "Makes me wish there were more than 26 letters." With only two letters left, Grafton's many devoted readers will share that sentiment.</b><br /> <b><br /> X:</b> The number ten. An unknown quantity. A mistake. A cross. A kiss.<br /> <b><br /> X:</b> The shortest entry in Webster's Unabridged. Derived from Greek and Latin and commonly found in science, medicine, and religion. The most graphically dramatic letter. Notoriously tricky to pronounce: think <i>xylophone</i>.<br /> <b><br /> X:</b> The twenty-fourth letter in the English alphabet.<br /> Sue Grafton's <b>X</b>: Perhaps her darkest and most chilling novel, it features a remorseless serial killer who leaves no trace of his crimes. Once again breaking the rules and establishing new paths, Grafton wastes little time identifying this sociopath. The test is whether Kinsey can prove her case against him before she becomes his next victim.</p><br /> <i>From the Hardcover edition.</i>. Narrator Judy Kaye leads listeners down the convoluted path of an old murder case when private investigator Kinsey Millhone becomes curious about what a former partner was working on when he died. Kaye voices Millhone's frustration as she tries to piece together the fragments of a case gone cold. The astonishment in her voice as the killer comes into focus is palpable. In this latest "Alphabet" installment, Grafton includes a number of tangents that series fans may best appreciate. In one, Kaye perfectly renders Millhone's outrage when she discovers that an elderly couple is taking advantage of a kindhearted neighbor. Listeners may not want to join this alphabet freight train at its end but instead become more familiar with Kaye's many earlier renditions. M.S. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine. AudioFile Magazine.
