About this product

Product Information

The next in the Kinsey Millhone Alphabet mystery series from bestselling author Sue Grafton. "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. "In truth, the facts about Wendell Jaffe had nothing to do with my family history, but murder is seldom tidy and no one ever said revelations operate in a straight line. It was my investigation into the dead man's past that triggered the inquiry into my own, and in the end the two stories became difficult to separate." Five years ago, when Jaffe's thirty-five-foot Fuji ketch was found drifting off the Baja coast, it seemed a sure thing he'd gone overboard. The note he left behind admitted he was flat broke, his business bankrupt, his real estate gambit nothing but a huge Ponzi scheme about to collapse, with criminal indictment certain to follow. When the authorities soon after descended on his banks and his books, there was nothing left: Jaffe had stripped the lot. "Given my insatiable curiosity and my natural inclination to poke my nose in where it doesn't belong, it was odd to realize how little attention I'd paid to my own past. I'd simply accepted what I was told, constructing my personal mythology on the flimsiest of facts." But Jaffe wasn't quite without assets. There was the $500,000 life insurance policy made out to his wife and underwritten by California Fidelity. With no corpse to prove death, however, the insurance company was in no hurry to pay the claim. Dana Jaffe had to wait out the statutory five years until her missing husband could be declared legally dead. Just two months before Wendell Jaffe was sighted in that dusty resort bar, California Fidelity finally paid in full. Now they wanted the truth.And they were willing to hire Kinsey Millhone to dig it up. As Kinsey pushes deeper into the mystery surrounding Wendell Jaffe's pseudocide, she explores her own past, discovering that in family matters as in crime, sometimes it's better to reserve judgment. "J" is for judgment: the kind we're quick to make and often quicker to regret. "J" Is for Judgment : Kinsey Millhone's tenth excursion into the dark places of the heart where duplicity is the governing rule and murder the too-frequent result. "A" Is for Alibi "B" Is for Burglar "C" Is for Corpse "D" Is for Deadbeat "E" Is for Evidence "F" Is for Fugitive "G" Is for Gumshoe "H" Is for Homicide "I" Is for Innocent "J" Is for Judgment "K" Is for Killer "L" is for Lawless "M" Is for Malice "N" Is for Noose "O" Is for Outlaw "P" Is for Peril "Q" Is for Quarry "R" Is for Ricochet "S" Is for Silence "T" Is for Trespass "U" Is for Undertow "V" Is for Vengeance "W" Is for Wasted "X"

    J is for Judgement falls in line with all of Sue Grafton books and works well.

    Another Sue Grafton hit. May not like it as well as a couple of her others but great plot and story line.

  • J is for Judgement is a welcome addition to the Kinsey Millhone adventures!

    If you happen to like the Shirlock Holmes sluthie books, pick up any one of the Sue Grafton, Kinsey Millhone books. Sue is currently writing W, and is reportedly going to Z and then stoping. Too bad but it gives Ms. Grafton the opportunity to throw us a few curves plot wise as her series winds down. In J is for Judgement, our heroine, Kinsey continues to get into trouble, find herself over her head at times, and as in each one of her previous novels, save the day. Interesting information surfaces in J, such as Kinsey discovering that the does indeed have relatives. The plot doesn't really matter much in as much as Grafton creates a mystery again and thrusts her heroine into things in a way which keeps the reader rivited. I recommended this addition, however, to do it justice, start out ...

  • sue grafton j is for judgement kinsey millhone gum shoe detective

    flap says: 5 yrs ago when jaffe's 35 ft fuji ketch was found drifting off the baja coast it seemed a sure thing he'd gone over board. the note he left behind admitted he was flat broke, his business bankrup, his real estate gambit nothing but a hue ponzie scheme about to collapse, with criminal indictment certain to follow. i'm hoping that in one of these books kinsey will get a computer, carrying around her typwriter is getting old. there were too many unanswered questions in this book, especially why kinsey didn't turn a few people in for the wrongs they did. the family thing was a good twist, and i'm hoping to see that back ground story line continue. i'm hoping kinsey doesn't have to get her self killed at the end of every book,

  • Just what is up with that boat.?

    I have now read all of these books. Just sad that there will be no more Kinsey.
