"Book for book, this may be the most satisfying mystery series going."

"Unlike many detective series, Grafton's seems only to get better each time out." --Entertainment Weekly

"There are few writers able to sustain the solid mixture of detection, narrative energy and cultural observations that one finds in Grafton." --Washington Post Book World

"Judy Kaye . . . is hilariously on target." --Newsweek

"It's hard to imagine anyone doing a better job with Grafton's popular alphabet series than Tony winner Judy Kaye." --L.A. Life

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 memoirs 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 familiar hatreds.

M is for malice . . . and malice kills.
