    About this audiobook

    The daughter of a diplomat disappears on a school field trip-lured into the Santa Monica Mountains and killed in cold blood. Her father denies the possibility of a political motive. There are no signs of struggle and no evidence of sexual assault, leaving psychologist Alex Delaware and his friend LAPD homicide detective Milo Sturgis to pose the essential question: Why?
     
    Working with Daniel Sharavi, a brilliant Israeli police inspector, Delaware and Sturgis soon find themselves ensnared in one of the darkest, most menacing cases of their careers. And when death strikes again, it is Alex who must go undercover, alone, to expose an unthinkable conspiracy of self-righteous brutality and total contempt for human life.

      Kellerman's Alex Delaware and Milo Sturgis are at it again. The book begins with the suicide of a Los Angeles policeman, and the murder of the retarded daughter of an Israeli diplomat. Things get really interesting when other handicapped people are found dead, and an old murder seems to have a similar MO. Alex puts himself in harm's way in an attempt to ferret out the truth and the pages turn quickly as the suspense mounts. I admit I'm not likely to remember the plot of this book in 6 months time, but it was a perfect read for a stormy Sunday.

      Rare characters from novels in this series and non-series books was a cool touch.
      Though kinda disappointing as we know there aren't many more stories with them, at least not as of now.
      I really enjoy the growth of Alex and Milo.
      And as of know, the rarest of all things, not 1 mention of bougainvillea.

      narrator sounds very much like Grover Gardner who does David Rosenfelt's books; good story, believable
    • 1/5
      Got really preachy. I agree with Kellerman's outlook, but I was looking for entertainment, not a heavy-handed lecture.
    • 2/5
      Good read alright. But 1) Too much unlikely intrigue. 2) Ending very unsatisfactory. Too one sided about the historical motivations surrounding eugenics. And in the end the killings were not about that anyway. Too one sided period. Interesting vignettes--Delaware about to be seduced by a supposed perp (that in turn becomes a victim). Almost too many themes--intelligence, Jewish themes, cop suicide, killing for fun. This installment again strays from the strength of this series: clear psychological themes coupled with LA noir.
