‘[Kellerman] has shaped the psychological mystery novel into an art form’ – Los Angeles Times Book Review
When Alex Delaware first saw Lauren Teague she was a sullen teenager with the usual problems: bad grades at school, moody, uncommunicative with her parents – which is why they thought she needed to see a psychologist.
Then years later, a shock: at a bachelor party for a fellow doctor, Delaware finds himself uncomfortably watching two strippers going through a degrading display – and one of them is Lauren Teague. And now her mother is pleading for help once again: Lauren has disappeared – and she thinks Delaware can find her. He’s not so sure – but when her disappearance turns into a murder investigation, he knows he owes it to the dead girl to find out what demons drove her to such a horrifying end…

Reviews
Praise for Jonathan Kellerman: [Kellerman] has shaped the psychological mystery novel into an art form
Kellerman's speciality is getting quietly but persistently inside his hero's head... this is thoughtful and intelligent stuff, a sparse, precision-paced professional thriller that is slick, quick and a pleasure to read
A well-crafted psychological whodunnit with enough intrigue to keep the pages turning
A very clever mystery with a whammy of a finale
Full of suspense and with an evil atmospheric LA as a backdrop
An absorbing read, with some unexpected twists and turns
Alex and Milo are well-developed personalities and it's their relationship as much as the investigation which keeps the story flowing
Razor-sharp... A skillful piece of work
Simply too good to miss
Coolly intelligent
