Malcolm's murder

(1/7) > >>

groinkick:
So I was thinking about how he could have been murdered.  From what I've read, Harry, and Malcolm moved around a lot.  Wouldn't this mean that he wouldn't have much protection in the form of a barrier at home?

Didn't he die with a smile on his face? 

I know we've discussed it at length before but thought maybe people have had new ideas on the subject.

Kindler:
I've often thought that Malcolm died similarly to Shiro: he took Harry's place. From what, I have no idea. But I'm pretty sure he was protecting Harry.

That would suggest White Court vampire. It's quite plausible that Lord Raith ordered his death because he was pissed about Maggie's death curse and decided to kill her family as punishment. If Raith assumed Harry died in child birth, he could have just given orders to kill Malcolm Dresden without realizing there was also a child to kill. It also could have taken Raith awhile to discovery that it was Maggie that was the cause of his curse, which would explain why he didn't go after Malcolm immediately.

wardenferry419:
My thought was that Malcolm died from a weak variation of the heart-bursting spell that was used in Book 1, that same heart-bursting spell seems to be a weak variation of the Bloodline spell from Book 12.

Mr. Death:
Officially, it was deemed an aneurysm, so if that's anywhere close to the actual, physical cause of death, that eliminates the heart exploding spell.

My money is it's on an entropy curse, cast by Justin -- possibly with HWWB's help. He did die overnight, yes? How much you want to bet his time of death was about 13 minutes from midnight?
