Summary: "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&mdashfour men with very different outlooks, temperaments, and needs, linked only by blood and money. Eighteen years ago, one of them&mdashangry, troubled, and in trouble&mdashwent 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.
