Reba Lafferty was a daughter of privilege, the only child of an adoring father. Nord Lafferty was already in his fifties when Reba was born, and he could deny her nothing. Over the years, he quietly settled her many scrapes with the law, but he wasn't there for her when she was convicted of embezzlement and sent to the California Institution for Women. Now, at thirty-two,...more

This is probably my least favorite of Sue Grafton's alphabet-themed mysteries. I guess part of it is because there really is no clear crime that is being investigated for most of the book. Instead, Kinsey Millhone finds herself being hired by multi-millionaire Nord Lafferty to serve as a supervisor for his daughter, Reba, who has just been released from prison for embezzling money from her boss and lover Alan "Beck" Beckwith.

I guess part of it is because there really is no clear crime that is being investigated for most of the book. Instead, Kinsey Millhone finds herself being hired by multi-millionaire Nord Lafferty to serve as a supervisor for his daughter, Reba, who has just been released from prison for embezzling money from her boss and lover Alan "Beck" Beckwith. The funny thing is that Reba is actually still in love with Beck, who has clearly moved on after she has taken the blame for a crime in which he was likely involved.

In fact, the FBI approaches Reba with the possibility of testifying against Beck so they can bring him in. At first, Reba is not really open to doing so, but that all changes when she learns that her former best friend has replaced her as Beck's office assistant and lover. Reba sets out to bring Beck down and get revenge. This includes putting her parole in danger as she leaves the state and does other things she is banned from doing. Interestingly enough, Kinsey finds herself drawn to Reba as a friend and wanting to help.

Kinsey is also finding her love life heating up again. This time it is with Cheney Phillips, with whom she has flirted with in the past. The timing seems to be right as a relationship is clearly forming, though I have to admit that I find Cheney to be bossy and might be bad news in the long run for our heroine. Time will tell, though. To be honest, I simply done like Cheney.

Kinsey's landlord Henry is finding that his own love life is getting more interesting than he would prefer. His older brother Lewis has set his eyes on a woman they both met on a cruise. The question is who will get the love of their pursuit, and it is so hard for us not to feel and cheer for Henry.

I felt this tale seemed more overwhelmed by Kinsey's personal life rather than being more focused on the mystery. Perhaps that is because the mystery seems less a mystery than a suspense tale. The books is still interesting, but Grafton's stories of murder draw me in more deeply. I will definitely be continuing with S, though.(less)

I haven't read any reviews of R is for Ricochet yet, but I predict this installment in Sue Grafton's series will be as polarizing as P is for Peril was. Five chapters in, I recognized that Grafton was going a different route with this one when I still didn't know what the mystery was.

Five chapters in, I recognized that Grafton was going a different route with this one when I still didn't know what the mystery was. When that remained the case twenty chapters in, I settled in and agreed with the author to go along for the ride, whatever that ride was going to be.

Kinsey Millhone is hired by a wealthy, aging developer to escort Reba, his incarcerated daughter, from prison to her parole officer and the rest of the way home, helping also in the following days to keep Reba company (read: out of trouble) as she gets settled again into regular society. Now that she's out of prison, the ex-boyfriend from whom she was caught embezzling seems eager to reestablish relations with her, while, unbeknownst to him, certain government agencies are interested in recruiting her help in nailing a big-time money-launderer.

Reba seems perfectly incapable of playing along with any game established by someone else's rules, so Kinsey finds herself swept along as Reba jukes and jives her way through plans made by her father, her ex-boyfriend, the conditions of her parole, the government agencies, and her own resolve to stay out of trouble. Although Kinsey is involved in Reba's machinations, she has very little agency herself, and we the readers are carried along in Kinsey's wake just as Kinsey seems to be swept along in Reba's.

What this all means is that instead of Kinsey's usual independent action, the narrative is mostly about her dependent reaction, a storytelling strategy that would never have held fans' interest through eighteen serial installments if it had been employed from the beginning.

However, it works here because whodunnit plots are not all the novel or series have going for them. Grafton takes more time in R is for Ricochet to develop other areas of Kinsey's life than she has since nearer the beginning of the alphabet. Kinsey's love life takes on a new direction, and she finds herself caught up in her landlord Henry's romantic life as well. There is also more interaction with Rosie, the owner of the bar Kinsey frequents, than we've had in some time.

For better or worse (I say better), Grafton has allowed Kinsey (and readers, by extension) to develop important, interesting relationships with a small number of people around her, and rabid fans will likely appreciate this development. The more casual reader might not be as pleased, and I'd hate for anyone to pick this novel up as his or her first experience with the series. When this is all over, I doubt anyone will make anyone's best-of-Kinsey list, but it's a pretty fun ride for a seventeenth sequel, and I enjoyed it.(less)

Duration: 11 hours, 33 minutes

"Occasionally I'm simply a minor character in someone else's play." -Kinsey Millhone.

R is for Ricochet really is an appropriate title for this one since, like a misfired bullet that bounces around and hits uninvolved bystanders, Kinsey gets caught up in a client's mess and nearly gets herself killed.

I heard about this series on Central Standard (NPR) and thought I'd give it a go. The good news first. Grafton choose to set the entire series in the 1980's. It takes sleuthing to a level I haven't seen since Magnum PI. Detective Milhorne often stops by the office to check her message machine, she uses phone books and pay phones, and she uses resources at the library to find facts! Fun, fun!
Now the bad news. Mystery authors walk a fine line with their readers. Make the mystery too difficult to...more

Private Investigator Kinsey Milhone is back on the job, hired by a privileged parolee's father to keep her out of trouble. It should be an easy assignment-until the parolee's past starts coming back to haunt her.
Reba Lafferty was a daughter of privilege. Abandoned by her rebellious mother when she was an infant, she was the only child of a rich man already in his mid-fifties when she was born, and her adoring father thoroughly spoiled her. Now, at thirty-two, having had many scrapes with the la...more

I've fallen behind in my Kinsey Milhone reading. I have liked all of the series, with some better than others, and only one that I really had trouble liking at the end. I won't say which one. I liked this one better than most. Sue Grafton is squarely in the hard-boiled detective school of writing, which is definitely not my usual taste, but Kinsey is a lot like someone I knew when I was growing up in California, and I like her in spite of the chasm that separates her lifestyle from mine.

Millhone in classic form, almost outshined by Reba !

As with many of Sue Grafton's easy-reading tales about Santa Teresa private eye Kinsey Millhone, the books starts out pretty slow with Kinsey accepting a straightforward assignment to escort home a newly released parolee from women's prison, Reba Lafferty. The latter is an appealing young woman with fresh ideas and habits, including a past penchant for light drugs, booze, gambling, and her former boss Beck. That she landed in the slammer by ple...more

I can think of several derogatory words that begin with C, but none that start with an R. The best I can think of off the top of my head is “R is for Ratshit”, which is kind of cheating.

I can think of several derogatory words that begin with C, but none that start with an R. The best I can think of off the top of my head is “R is for Ratshit”, which is kind of cheating.

Yes, I was less than impressed with this latest effort by Sue Grafton in her alphabetically-themed adventures of her heroine Kinsey Millhone, a private investigator. Why? Because it really is INCREDIBLY DULL. And Kinsey is also INCREDIBLY DULL. This is meant to be a thriller detective novel – what do I care whether Kinsey goes jogging, unless something interesting happens along the way? What do I care about the romantic problems suffered by her 80-year old neighbour? What do I care about the precise details of her outfit? Well, I’ll tell you – NOTHING. This book really made me suspicious that the whole female-private-eye genre is nothing more than Mills and Boon in disguise – the word "frisson" even lurked in one sentence, ready to shock the unwary reader believing she was reading a hard-nosed feminist text. Okay okay, maybe that’s going a bit far, Kinsey is certainly much more liberated than the average Mills and Boon heroine, BUT THE AVERAGE MILLS AND BOON NOVEL IS MORE INTERESTING THAN THIS. Maybe I was just crabby when I read this novel…perhaps if I’d been a fan of the whole series right from “A is for Aardvarkshit” (not the real title) I would be more enthusiastic about the adventures (or not) of Kinsey Millhone. Gee, I can’t wait for “Z is for Zebrashit” to come out…

The only interesting thing about this novel is that it is set in the 1980s, Grafton deciding not to age her characters in real time. And that’s only interesting for its novelty value – how many other novels do you know deliberately set in the 1980s? Pity Grafton didn’t chuck in a bit more Duran Duran and Milli Vanilli – that could have spiced things up a bit.

A definite winner! This was a page-turner for me. It’s July 1987, a few weeks after Kinsey’s 37th birthday. Kinsey (Grafton?) opens philosophically:

“The basic question is this: given human nature, are any of us really capable of change? The mistakes other people make are usually patently obvious. Our own are tougher to recognize. In most cases, our path through life reflects a fundamental truth about who we are now and who we’ve been since birth. We’re optimists or pessimists, joyful or depresse...more A definite winner! This was a page-turner for me. It’s July 1987, a few weeks after Kinsey’s 37th birthday. Kinsey (Grafton?) opens philosophically:

“The basic question is this: given human nature, are any of us really capable of change? The mistakes other people make are usually patently obvious. Our own are tougher to recognize. In most cases, our path through life reflects a fundamental truth about who we are now and who we’ve been since birth. We’re optimists or pessimists, joyful or depressed, gullible or cynical, inclined to seek adventure or to avoid all risks. Therapy might strengthen our assets or offset our liabilities, but in the main we do what we do because we’ve always done it that way, even when the outcome is bad…perhaps especially when the outcome is bad.” (1)

Kinsey takes on what seems on the surface to be a simple case making sure an ex-con (Reba Lafferty) checks in with her parole officer on time and has a smooth transition from the California women’s correctional facility to life on the “outside.” Of course, nothing with Kinsey is ever simple. She ends up helping the IRS, FBI and other federal agencies solve an elaborate money-laundering scheme happening right in Kinsey’s hometown.

A subplot of “R” is Kinsey’s love life: brief reflections on most recent “boyfriend” Dietz and her ex-husbands and then a new involvement with Cheney Phillips, a law enforcement officer she’s known for years and worked with a couple of years earlier. When she sees him at Reba’s parole officer’s office, Kinsey explains, “When I heard he’d gotten married, I’d moved his name, in my mental Rolodex, from a prominent place near the front to a category I labeled ‘expunged without prejudice’ near the back of the file.” (44) When she discovers Cheney’s recent marriage is over after only five weeks, she’s interested in following the chemistry between them.

Turns out the opening philosophical passage sets the scene for more than one character in “R.”

Kinsey charges $500 a day for PI work. Her favorite author is John le Carré. She still craves McDonald’s QPs with cheese. She’s a member of AAA and loves to pick up strip maps for a trip even when she knows where she’s going.

When she gets herself in a life-threatening situation near the end, I’m reminded again how much safer she will be once she has a cell phone. But that’s a few years away. Remember…in Kinsey time it’s still 1987.

Reba Lafferty is on parole after doing 22 months for embezzlement. Things seem to be fine until Kinsey catches Reba using her as a beard to meet her married lover, who also happens to be the ex-employer she supposedly stole $350,000 from. Reba seems thrilled to be back in Beck’s arms until an overzealous FBI agent slips her some compromising photos of him and her supposed best friend, Onni. At the same time Reba’s life seems about to spin out of control, Kinsey is approached by attractive cop, Cheney Phillips, who wants her to talk Reba into giving evidence against Beck for money laundering. Kinsey had a thing for Cheney once, but he ran off and got married. Now, however, Cheney is single again, and Kinsey gives in to the attraction immediately.

The love interest definitely picked up the story, but I found Cheney annoyingly bossy, and Kinsey irritatingly obedient. While professing some personal interest in Reba Lafferty’s well being, at a word from Cheney she stops taking her calls. Amazingly, Reba goes off the deep end, after some help from the FBI who prodded her into action and then couldn’t be bothered to meet with her. Kinsey may have been able to keep an eye on her, which was what she had been hired to do, except she was following her lover’s orders instead of doing her job. She then does the cops’ job for them—unpaid—tracking Reba down after they completely mishandled her case, and winds up right where she wasn’t supposed to be—right in the middle of Reba’s dangerous drama.

The last few books in this series weren’t all that much fun, but this one felt more like the earlier Kinsey Millhone mysteries with a touch of humor and humanity. Unfortunately, her on-again off-again treatment of Reba bugged me, as well as her willingness to let the big, strong man she had let into her bed tell her what to do. It would have been just as easy to weave the same elements into this story, and more in line with Kinsey’s personality, had she not followed orders. That complaint aside, this was a pretty good book, and it’s nice to see some life back in this series.

I believe Grafton is running out of gas on this series. I say that because in this story, which finds Kinsey taking a milk run job escorting a recently released daughter of a wealthy man and helping her re-integrate into society, is very mundane and almost is a backdrop for the other events going in Kinsey's life and her landlord Henry's.
