Winner of the Anthony Award for Best Novel, C is for Corpse is the third in the Kinsey Millhone mystery series by Sue Grafton.My name is Kinsey Millhone.

He was convinced someone was trying to kill him. By Thursday, he was dead. But Kinsey wasn’t going back on a deal. She had been hired to prevent a murder. Now she was looking for the murderer . . .

The third novel in the Kinsey Millhone mystery series, now with a stunning new look
In 1982, with the publication of A is for Alibi, Sue Grafton introduced us to private investigator Kinsey Millhone. Now, over thirty years later, Kinsey is an established international icon and Sue, a bestselling author. Over the course of Grafton’s Kinsey Millhone Alphabet series – known as such for the letter-themed titles – readers have fallen for the novels’ singular detective. Driving a decrepit Volkswagen, cutting her own hair and living in what is ostensibly a garage, Kinsey has won over readers with her ingenuity, wit and dogged dedication to her cases. Grafton intends for Kinsey to keep solving crimes on the Californian streets all the way up to Z.
