"C" is for Corpse
"C" is for Corpse is as entertaining as it is suspenseful. This will be another story by Sue Grafton that you will remember with its colorful characters depicted in ways that bring them to life, and of course make you laugh outloud at times. Ms Grafton is great at showing all sides of a person's character in this drama. Buy it and you will enjoy it!
