Synopsis
"M" is for the Malek brothers. The four men are poised to inherit the fortune amassed by their parents...but one brother has been missing for 18 years. That's where Kinsey Millhone steps in. The family hires her to locate the missing brother, and in the process, Millhone enters a forbidding web of family secrets and resentments. She begins to suspect that the desire for the brother's return is not driven by love, but by malice.

Publisher's Note
"M" is for money. Lots of it. "M" is for Malek Construction, the $40 million company that grew out of modest soil to become one of the big three in California construction, one of the few still in family hands. "M" is for the Malek family: four sons now nearing middle age who stand to inherit a fortune - four men with very different outlooks, temperaments, and needs, linked only by blood and money. Eighteen years ago, one of them - angry, troubled, and in trouble - went missing. "M" is for Millhone, hired to trace that missing black sheep brother. "M" is for memories, none of them happy. The bitter memories of an embattled family. This prodigal son will find no welcome at his family's table. "M" is for malice. And in brutal consequence, "M" is for murder, the all-too-common outcome of familial hatreds.

Industry reviews
"As always, Grafton's well-crafted plot fits together like a museum reproduction jigsaw..."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Margo Kaufman (11/10/1996)

"Grafton is now half way through her crime alphabet. No trace of fatigue. The books get better and better."
Literary Review - Philip Oakes (03/19/1997)

"She [Kinsey Millhone] is altogether a more rounded and presentable heroine for the reader to engage with, and "M is for Malice" delivers a nicely intricate plot."
Spectator - Harriet Waugh (04/05/1997)

"Polished heartfelt work from Grafton..."
Frisch
