Malice Masterpieces 3

BOOK 11 MINOR MALICE What makes Alice, well...Alice? From an early age, she was always "different." People noticed it: from her unusual eyes that changed when she felt intense emotions, to her brain and her peculiar habits. Is a "serial killer" actually "born," or is she "made?" Here we find out more about the youthful Alice and why her early life experiences made her the woman who has intrigued us all. BOOK 12 MORALLY MALICE Alice is tired of the killing; she wants a nice, normal life. Circumstances won't let her though, and although she has tried to do the "right" thing, the "moral" thing, life won't allow her to do anything but what she needs to do to protect her family from those who would hurt them. BOOK 13 MOROSE MALICE The possible end of Alice's marriage means that she has to leave the home she has built with Kathy. She moves back to New York to start over. Running into her college roommate and former lover sets off a chain of events that even Alice couldn't anticipate or control. When Alice renews old friendships and meets new people, we learn a bit more about her and her exhilarating past. The new people in her life though, means new changes are in store for our beloved Alice-changes she might not like. BOOK 14 MELANCHOLY MALICE Left alone to deal with the enormity of the estate that was willed to her, Kathy must go on alone. Can she deal with the children, the finances, the legitimate and not so legitimate business dealings? The many surprises in store for her, some welcome and some not so welcome, begin to change Kathy. Meeting the "other" women in Alice's life, as well as many people she didn't know were in her past, may prove to be too much for Kathy. Will she rise up to the occasion or fail horribly? Perhaps Alice saw more in Kathy than she herself knew was there? BOOK 15 MAD MALICE Angry at being left alone to cope with the enormous fortune Alice left her, Kathy has to learn to deal with business, family, and a blackmailer who is certain he has her over a barrel. Dealing with the life she now leads, she doesn't realize until it's too late how much Alice and her "lessons" have influenced her and her reactions. "Accidentally" killing her blackmailer leads to being a target by his brother with the apparent backing of the L.A.P.D. Being in their crosshairs, she realizes she has to change her strategy as life seems to get away from her, and the enormity of it all may come crashing down on her and her family.
