Description
Brace yourself for an "Electrifying and thoroughly satisfying" read (Publishers Weekly) from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sue Grafton
"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.
"M" is for malice . . . and malice kills.

5By BigedefenseI am a high school teacher & football coach. I fell in love with Miss Grafton's writing while recovering from my second back surgery in a year. As soon as I got back to work, I bought the entire collection & donated it to our library. This book is one that is entertaining for the youth of today, as well as over the hill folks like myself. I started encouraging students to read these books & bribed them with a pizza party after school at the end of each semester. All they had to do was be able to tell me about the book they read. Now, you have to understand, I teach at a rural school in Mississippi & we only have 200 students in grades 9 thru 12. The first party, I had 20 something show up. The second, I had 50 something. I begged our local meat market into sirloin steaks for this past party. It wad my biggest yet!!! Last month (12-16-11), I had 102 students that were able to verbally describe the book they had read! Our Librarian thinks I am the greatest football coach ever, not because we made it to the semi's this year, but because I have, I'm her words, "made reading the cool thing to do." I told her that Sue Grafton did that, I just shared what I had stumbled upon with our school! P. S. We now have 6 copies of each book, but we gladly take donations! THANK YOU SUE!
