August 1986
Phillip Lanahan drove to Vegas in his 1985 Prosche 911 Carreras Cabriolet, a snappy little red car his parents had given him two months before, when he graduated from Princeton.
Friday 56 hosted @ Freda's Voice is a weekly Meme where we share an interesting snippet from page 56 of any book. This is also V is for Vengeance by Sue Grafton.
Mentally, I squinted, trying to judge the truth value of his claim. I knew he believed it, but was there foundation in fact?

Sounds like a good mystery.
I love all of Sue Grafton's books and recently read this one. Love the character Lindsay Millhone!
Thanks for sharing.

I've only read A is for Alibi but loved it and am planning to read more! Great 56!

Hi Srivalli,
I have only read a couple of books from this series, but I do know a few people who are right up to date with the whole alphabet and are real fans.
I love this uncomplicated mystery writing style, which leaves you feeling satisfied when you have read it, but not feeling too taxed or drained by a comlex plot.
Thanks for reminding me about the series, I guess that's another 20 or so books to add to my reading list then! LOL
Have a great weekend,
Yvonne
I've read a few of Sue Graftons mystery books, but haven't got as far as V. Thanks for sharing.
intriguing! and "squinting mentally" - quite an interesting way to put it!
Here's mine
I've never read any of those alphabet books, although I see them all the time. Maybe I should try one . . .
I haven't read that series in awhile. This one sound interesting.
I like this opening and page 56 made me think (i.e. anything to do with the concept of 'truth' is interesting). Thanks for sharing.
I didn't know there was something called the Friday 56!!! I'll have to join this week :)
xo,
