A Is for Alibi - Kinsey Millhone Alphabet Mysteries Reprint edition

A tough-talking former cop, private investigator Kinsey Millhone has set up a modest detective agency in a quiet corner of Santa Teresa, California. A twice-divorced loner with few personal possessions and fewer personal attachments, she?s got a soft spot for underdogs and lost causes.  Eight years ago, Nikki Fife was convicted of killing her philandering husband. Now she?s out on parole and needs Kinsey?s help to find the real killer.  If there's one thing that makes Kinsey feel alive, it's playing on the edge. When her investigation turns up a second corpse, more suspects, and a new reason to kill, Kinsey discovers that the edge is closer?and sharper?than she imagined.
