"Here's what you hope for: a chance remark from the former neighbor on a skip-trace, a penciled notation on the corner of a document, an ex-spouse with a grudge, the number on an account, an item overlooked at the scene of a crime. Here's what you expect: the dead ends, bureaucratic bullheadedness, the cul-de-sacs, trails that go nowhere or simply fade into thin air, denials, prevarications, the blank-eyed stares from all the hostile witnesses. Here's what you know: that you've done it before and you have the toughness and determination to pull it off again. Here's what you want: justice. Here's what you'll settle for: something equivalent, the quid pro quo." All of the above are on display in Grafton's latest entry in her increasingly popular series set in a thinly-disguised Santa Barbara, as the virtually ageless Kinsey finds and loses a missing heir and gets back an old lover. 1300442 1996 M is for Malice (Kinsey Millhone Mystery) total:2991|5:605|4:1191|3:1087|2:97|1:11| 2991 11255 3857 56 64854 0449223604 9780449223604 2927 52 3.76 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170624850m/64854.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/64854.M_is_for_Malice 4 1 false Sat Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2002 Wed Nov 26 03:43:11 -0800 2008 Wed Nov 26 03:55:06 -0800 2008 1 In this installment, Kinsey is hired to find a missing man who was named equally in his fathers will along with his three brothers.
