My wife is reading the series now and was pretty sad when she heard the news. Grafton only had one more book to go - Z.
I sold quite a few of those books in the 90's. RIP Sue.

Same here. I worked in a few different book stores around 90-92 and she was a pretty hot seller then. 'G is for Gumshoe' is the first of her books I remember selling because it had recently come out and had a VW bug on the cover.
Jeez, me too. Worked at Waldenbooks from 1990-92 or so. I remember Grafton's large number of books very well.
RIP.
