    The first UK editions, first impressions of these works. In the original unclipped dustwrappers. Five novels in Sue Grafton's 'Alphabet Murders' series. Containing; 'K is for Killer', published in 1994. 'M is for Malice', published in 1997. 'P is for Peril', published in 2001. 'Q is for Quarry', published in 2002. 'R is for Ricochet', published in 2004. Written by Sue Grafton, who is best known for this influential and popular series of detective novels, known as the 'alphabet series'. She started writing her detective novels after a bitter divorce and custody battle, which resulted in Grafton imagining ways to kill or maim her ex-husband, providing inspiration for this detective series.
