U IS UNDERTOW

Judy Kaye has been through nearly the whole alphabet with author Sue Grafton as California PI Kinsey Millhone. Kaye is fully comfortable in Kinsey's sneakers and successful in voicing her independent style and grit. In U IS FOR UNDERTOW, Kinsey delves into an unsolved kidnapping that took place in the '60s and works to reconstruct scenes and relationships twenty years later. Narrator Kaye keeps the listener on track through the time shifts and plot twists. She's also adept at keeping Kinsey's ongoing discovery of her family background parallel and intertwined with Kinsey's work on the case.
