Such believable characters! - By: K. Morrison, 23 Jun 2005 
I have read a few of the alphabet series, in no particular order, & thought every one of them brilliant. I love Kinsey Millhone, she is flawed enough to be funny, believable & human. This outing had me hooked from the off, & when she found Guy Malek I felt like I knew the man. How I wished they would get together! I was so sad at the events that unfolded, & the cruel twist as the truth about Guy's honour among his dishonest brothers was revealed. When Kinsey found the note in her car, I nearly wept- but read the book to find out everything for yourself. You won't regret it- the characters are so real, if you will excuse the tired cliche, I feel as if I know them by now. Guy Malek is another one to add to the list of people I forget aren't real & never have been.
M for Mind numbingly boring - By: , 18 Jul 2002 
As a lover of crime & thriller books, I was recommended to read Sue Grafton. All I can say is I never finished the book! I was half way through before the 'murder' was even mentioned, & by that time was so despondent that I couldn't even bring myself to plough through the rest of the book. Too wordy. Too expletive.
First time reader of Sue Grafton bowled over - By: , 06 Feb 2002 I had never read any of Sue Grafton's novels until a month ago when I picked up "M is for Malice". I thought it was a brilliant , suspenceful read & for a hardened reader of crime novels I actuallly shed a tear at the very end. The heroine Kinsey is thoroughly believable & a real flesh & blood character. I'm looking forward to reading more of Sue Grafton's works.
Quite Brilliant - By: Mrs. K. A. Wheatley, 23 Nov 2000 This book is heart breakingly sad. From the moment Kinsey finds Guy Malek & brings him home to share his inheritance you know he is doomed & he is so lovely. Even the usuallly emotionallly watchful Kinsey fallls for him in a big way, which makes it a double loss. You will her on to avenge his murder & the ending has a neat twist which only makes the tragedy harder to bear. This is stupendous crime writing at its melancholy best.
