That's I call it anyway. I've been shelving her books for ever, watching them progress through the alphabet all the way to y... and why must she die before "Z"? A sad and cruel twist of fate.

“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

What would her final novel have been named?
Grafton started out as a screenplay writer though she said few were published and most went into the trash. When she got "A is for Alibi" published, that was her big breakthrough and she was done with screen writing. It was also her wish that none of her alphabet books would ever be made into movies.
Quite a lady, quite a legacy.
