In what may be her creepiest novel to date, Sue Grafton's T IS FOR TRESPASS is also her most direct confrontation with the forces of evil. Though set in the late eighties, T IS FOR TRESPASS could not be more topical: identity theft; elder abuse; betrayal of trust; the breakdown of institutions charged with caring for the weak and the dependent. Once again, Grafton opens up new territory with startling results.
Judy Kaye simply is Kinsey Millhone. When Kinsey is on her daily run, Judy is short of breath. When Kinsey is being strangled by a 300-pound sociopath, Judy can barely force air through her throat. Kaye, who has narrated all of Grafton's Alphabet series, has the task nicely down pat. In addition to Kinsey, she creates many believable female characters, and her men are distinct (if a bit light-voiced). In this, the twentieth novel in the series, Kinsey is living in 1988. Yet the topics are thoroughly up-to-date: identity theft and abuse of the elderly. Fans of the series will be comforted to find that not much has changed in Santa Teresa. R.E.K.
