Praise for U is for Undertow
"Has this reliable series lost its addictive appeal? Not at all."-Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review
"Arresting prose...[a] brilliantly inventive novel."-Richmond Times-Dispatch
"Makes me wish there were more than twenty-six letters at her disposal."-Maureen Corrian, NPR.org
"Her most structurally complex, psychologically potent book to date."-Los Angeles Times
More Praise for Sue Grafton and the Alphabet Series
"I'm going to miss Kinsey Millhone. Ever since the first of Sue Grafton's Alphabet mysteries, A Is For Alibi, came out in 1982, Kinsey has been a good friend and the very model of an independent woman, a gutsy Californian P.I. rocking a traditional man's job...it's Kinsey herself who keeps this series so warm and welcoming. She's smart, she's resourceful, and she's tough enough to be sensitive on the right occasions."-New York Times Book Review
"The consistent quality and skillful innovations in this alphabet series justify all the praise these books have received over the past 35 years."-Wall Street Journal
"A superb storyteller."-Publishers Weekly
"Grafton's endless resourcefulness in varying her pitches in this landmark series, graced by her trademark self-deprecating humor, is one of the seven wonders of the genre."-Kirkus Reviews
"Grafton is a writer of many strengths-crisp characterizations, deft plotting, and eloquent dialogue among them-and she has kept her long-running alphabet mystery series fresh and each new release more welcome than the last."-Louisville Courier-Journal
"[Grafton's] ability to give equal weight to the story of the detective and the detective story sets her apart in the world of crime fiction."-Richmond Times-Dispatch
