In this gripping memoir-meets-legal-thriller, Kelley Lynch pulls readers through the looking glass into a world where fame, fraud, and federal law collide. What began as a professional fallout with legendary artist Leonard Cohen in 2004 evolved into a decades-long saga of legal warfare, betrayal, and institutional cover-up—one that would ultimately entangle probate courts, tax agencies, law firms, and auction houses.

Malice in Wonderland follows Lynch’s extraordinary journey as she confronts the weaponization of a fraudulent trust instrument, a $48 million IP laundering operation, and a California justice system manipulated to silence a whistleblower. From the courtroom dramas surrounding Cohen’s estate to the behind-the-scenes orchestration of default judgments, restraining orders, and tax fraud, this book reveals a surreal and often disturbing story of fiduciary misconduct and federal obstruction—with real consequences for constitutional rights, due process, and the rule of law. Artwork - Hollyweird, a double illusion.
With biting wit and a forensic eye for detail, Lynch chronicles her nomadic life on the run from legal abuse, her persistent efforts to expose a complex network of deception, and the bizarre cast of characters who populate this twisted Wonderland—including heirs, handlers, and “I Care a Lot” style trustees. Artwork - the Defafult Judgmwent that keeps on giving; now featured in the LCFT/Estate of Leonard Cohen federal tax showdown being laundered through LASC probate.
Part memoir, part exposé, Malice in Wonderland is a cautionary tale about what happens when truth threatens power—and what it takes to survive when the estate becomes the crime scene.
