Grady Ambrose Fletcher, Jessica Fletcher's nephew (through marriage), is a recurring character on "Murder, She Wrote". Specifically, Grady was the son of Frank Fletcher's late brother.

It was Grady who, after secretly reading Jessica's first novel The Corpse Danced at Midnight, had it published.

While Jessica and her husband, Frank, had numerous nieces and nephews, the couple seemed the closest to Grady -- especially since, when Grady was young, his parents (Frank's brother and sister-in-law) were killed in a car accident, leaving Grady an orphan. After his parents passed away, Grady was left under the guardianship of his relatives, who raised him like he was their own son.

An amateurish but good-natured person, Grady seemed to always move from accounting job to accounting job. When he had a job, murder would follow at once. Typically, a too-trusting Grady was accused of the murder and needed his Aunt Jessica to find the real murderer.

Grady's Ladies[]

His job troubles were as toxic as his issues with ladies. Grady, the bashful innocent type, had trouble finding a regular girl at all times. He eventually married equally bashful Donna Mayberry. Ironically his job troubles and ladies troubles converge when he finds out she worked for, and was terminated by, Donna's father.

Grady and Donna had a son in the series, who they name Frank, after Grady's relative.
