O IS FOR OUTLAW

If you're just beginning Grafton's Alphabet Series, welcome to the world of Kinsey Millhone. If this alphabet crusade is not new to you, welcome back to the '80s. Judy Kaye is no newcomer to the series, and she slips comfortably back into the personas of familiar characters. She sets a steady and smooth pace through the narrative passages that tell of Kinsey's life with her first husband. Kaye also adopts the precise hint of sarcasm that sometimes gets Kinsey in trouble and that routinely serves as a shield when things get too uncomfortable. A range of voices depicts Kinsey's dialogues with an assortment of characters. J.E.M. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: DEC 03/JAN 04]
