Best of the Book Nook: P is for Peril, by Sue Grafton

After Sue Grafton died last December I put together a special memorial program in her honor. You can locate that program in our podcast archive. I took excerpts from my first interview with Sue for her book "M is for Malice" and my third and final interview with her for "W is for Wasted."

Recently we digitized my second interview with Sue for her novel "P is for Peril." This conversation was recorded in 2001 and we find the author in her usual fine form. Her beloved Kinsey Milhone mystery series ran through 25 of the 26 letters in the alphabet. Sue died before she could write that final book.

Her legion of readers will miss her very much.

The Book Nook on WYSO is presented by the Greene County Public Library with additional support from Washington-Centerville Public Library,  Clark County Public LibraryDayton Metro Library, and Wright Memorial Public Library.
