I've been a fan of Kellerman's Psychologist Alexander Delaware series for many years. I haven't read a book in the series for quite a while. Truth is I got slightly bored with them. Kellerman seemed to be re-telling the same story with different villains. Reading this entry was like renewing acquaintances with an old friend: not necessarily exciting but happily satisfying. The basic plot opens with a young woman, Michaela Brady, who with a male friend, Denis Meserve, pretended to be car-jacked and abducted. Later the story changes when the whole escapade is exposed as a hoax and they are charged with a crime. The Public Defender asks Delaware to do a psychological read on the young woman and eventually the case against her is dismissed. Later her strangled body is found under an overpass in L.A. and Delaware's friend, Detective Milo Sturgis, asks if Delaware wants to get involved as a consultant. He agrees and in the process of trying to solve the case is introduced to the Dowd family, a group of wierdos who live off their inherited wealth. From that point on the focus is on Delaware and Sturgis as they work the case going down a number of blind alleys before figuring out who the real villains are. The interchange between the two is well written and interesting. In a sub-plot Alex and his ex-lover, Robin Castagna, work on putting their relationship back together. I suspect if one hasn't read any of the previous novels in the series that the strength of Delaware's connection to Sturgis, a gay L.A. Homicide Detective, and his on again, off again relationship with Robin might be difficult to grasp. Also there are a few holes in the plot that I didn't see until I finished the book. Aside from the above, I enjoyed the story and can recommend it. Not Kellerman's best work but well worth the time.
