'M' is for Malek Construction, the $40 million company that grew out of modest soil to become one of the big three in California. 'M' is for Malek family: four sons now nearing middle age who stand to inherit a fortune - four men with very different 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, now hired to trace that missing black sheep brother. And, in brutal consequence, 'M' is for murder ...'Another treat from the alphabet queen' Daily Mail

Book Overview: The thirteenth novel in the Kinsey Millhone mystery series, now with a stunning new look
Exceptionally entertaining...an offbeat sense of humor and a feisty sense of justice.
-- San Francisco Chronicle
Millhone is an engaging detective-for-hire...P.I. Kinsey Millhone and her creator...are arguably the best of [the] distaff invaders of the hitherto sacrosanct turf of gumshoes.
-- The Buffalo News
Once a fan reads one of Grafton's alphabetically titled detective novels, he or she will not rest until all the others are found. -- Los Angeles Herald Examiner
Millhone is a refreshingly strong and resourceful female private eye. -- Library Journal
Tough but compassionate...There is no one better than Kinsey Millhone. -- Best Sellers
A woman we feel we know, a tough cookie with a soft center, a gregarious loner. -- Newsweek
Lord, how I like this Kinsey Millhone...The best detective fiction I have read in years. -- The New York Times Book Review
Smart, tough, and thorough...Kinsey Millhone is a pleasure. -- The Bloomsbury Review
Kinsey is one of the most persuasive of the new female operatives...She's refreshingly free of gender cliches. Grafton, who is a very witty writer, has also given her sleuth a nice sense of humor--and a set of Wonder Woman sheets to prove it. -- Boston Herald
What grandpa used to call a class act. --Stanley Ellin
Smart, sexual, likable and a very modern operator. --Dorothy Salisbury Davis
