M Is For Malice
Ratings23
Average rating3.7
"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.

This book was slow moving until about the half way mark. I was getting annoyed and wanted the pace to pick up but in hindsight, I realized Grafton was slowly painting in her picture. This story was different and I like her efforts to keep things from being too repetitive. Now that I've finished the book I think it was one of her better books.
