Description

In this latest thriller byNew York Timesbestselling Jonathan Kellerman, psychologist Dr. Alex Delaware confronts an almost unimaginably cruel, arrogant, and obsessed killer who takes as much pleasure in matching wits with the police as in robbing human life--all in the name of science. The slightly retarded fifteen-year-old daughter of a diplomat dies on a school field trip--forced or lured into a deserted corner of the Santa Monica mountains and killed in cold blood.  Her father adamantly denies the possibility of a political motive, which leaves LAPD detective Milo Sturgis and his longtime friend psychologist Alex Delaware to pose the question:Why? The victim's father is so intent on controlling the investigation that Alex and Milo start to wonder if he wants to bring out the truth--or make sure it stays buried.  Then there is another killing, and within days Alex finds himself ensnared in one of the darkest, most menacing cases of his career.  Driven to find answers, he and Milo will work closely with Inspector Daniel Sharavi, the brilliant Israeli police detective introduced in Jonathan Kellerman'sThe Butcher's Theater(also available from BDD Audio and performed by Ben Kingsley).  In the end, though, it is Alex who will go undercover, alone, to expose the smug brutality of a murderous conspiracy and a terrifying contempt for human life.  In  Jonathan Kellerman draws one of the most chilling, frighteningly realistic portraits of evil you will ever experience. John Rubinstein's film credits include Another Stakeout and The Boys from Brazil, and he has appeared on television in such shows as Crazy Like a Fox and Family.  An accomplished stage actor, he won both a Tony Award and a Drama Desk award for his role on Broadway in Children of a Lesser God.  He has also performed the Bantam Doubleday Dell Audio editions of all of Jonathan Kellerman's previous Alex Delaware novels.
