Sue Grafton's alphabetical mysteries have given the public much more than easy soundbite templates for critics since the awesome, amazing, astonishing 'A is for Alibi' first came out in 1982. Millions of readers have followed the pulpish adventures of southern California's spunkiest female private investigator, Kinsey Millhone, in 'Alibi's' 18 sequels. The latest, 'S is for Silence,' disappointingly shows that Kinsey's enduring character power is simply not enough to hold interest when Grafton cannot come up with an interesting plot. 'Silence' struggles to succeed, simply short-changing the reader with a severely sub-par story. (Sorry.)

Even if it has been 40 degrees outside, it's still the middle of January and spring break is a long ways off. That's where Katie and Rob come in as travel assistants at the Memorial Union Travel Center.
