A review by luffy79
J is for Judgment by Sue Grafton
4.0
"J" is for Jaffe: Wendell Jaffe, dead these past five years. Or so it seemed until his former insurance agent spotted him in the bar of a dusty little resort halfway between Cabo San Lucas and La Paz.
Kinsey Millhone is on the trail of this Jaffe fellow. Each book has its own flavor. I didn't give the book 5 stars because of some dead passages where attempts to drum up suspense were lost on me. Once where Kinsey thought someone was shadowing her, and once where she was being pummelled with bullets in the dark.
Anyway, it's worth mentioning that here, Kinsey's cousins suddenly drop on her and claim family ties. This is a bemusing direction, and maybe it's bound to develop into a feature in the future books?
The book is fine. Quite clever and funny and pertinent. I've always admired authors who can describe architecture plus clothing. I can't do it, even now. Review submitted : by Luffy.
