Sure, she left Tyrande behind. That wasn't very nice of her. But 1) Tyrande had proved that she held little regard for the rule of law, and was willing to do some pretty stupid shit in her quest (who really thinks murdering the watchers to release Illidan was a good idea?), and 2) Tyrande fell in a RIVER. She wasn't swarmed by the undead or any such shit. She took an unintended swim, boo-hoo. Given the capacity of Warcraft heroes, I think it extremely likely that Maiev told that lie because she knew Tyrande was alive.

She told that lie because frankly, shit needed taking care of, and "Mal" wouldn't have had the balls to take care of business before running off to save Tyrande, and thus jeopardizing everything they had been working for. Cruel and mercenary of her? I would say yes. But hardly evil.
