Publisher Description

In his latest masterwork of psychological suspense, the New York Times bestselling author of The Program, Warning Signs, and The Best Revenge peers into a troubled marriage to craft a shattering tale of secrecy, eroticism, betrayal, and murder.

Psychologist Alan Gregory is juggling his responsibilities as a father, a husband, and doctor when a beautiful woman walks into his office with an astounding admission. Gibbs Storey believes that her husband may have murdered a woman. Then, Gibbs stuns Alan again with another revelation: She thinks there are other victims…and her husband is not finished killing yet.

"I really enjoy Stephen White's psychological thrillers--though this particular book wasn't so much a thriller as some of his others have been. He also usually starts out slow, building the plot, and then has a fast, startling ending, but not so much this time. It seemed that White was trying out some new writing techniques, perhaps to shake up his normal pattern. He switched between two points of view--the main character, Dr. Alan Gregory, and his best friend, detective Sam Purdy. We basically had two stories side by side with each point of view. First we have Alan Gregory's concerns both with an exacerbation of his wife's multiple sclerosis and a potentially disastrous problem with his clinical psychology practice. Then we have Sam Purdy dealing with a heart attack, self-esteem issues, and marital problems. It is almost as if the attempt to catch a serial murderer is peripheral to the real issues of the book. I also figured out the mystery angle without too much trouble this time; usually White's plots are more convoluted. Perhaps he was spending more of his creative energies on the personal issues of Alan and Sam. There were more clinical psychology aspects in this book, which I have always been intrigued with--delving into psychology, the relationship of truth and lies, the lies we keep from each other and ourselves. And there was a lot of discussion about marriage and love and what makes it work. White really does know how to create a complex, believable character. Blinded is a better book than many on the market but not his best and not really a psychological suspense thriller this time. Oh, the story was set at Thanksgiving time, and they talked about Thanksgiving feasts, deep frying turkeys, and cooking a turduken. I was tickled since I read this novel during the Thanksgiving holiday and those cooking treats were discussed in our family conversations."

    " This would have been a 3 except for Dick Hill reading the audiobook. Especially the upper midwest accent for Sam Purdy. Maybe my attention lagged at the end, but I couldn't make sense of how the killings were carried out. Now that I write this, should have been a 3. "

    " While I enjoyed this book, I thought it was a little too easy to figure out what was happening. I also didn't feel that Alan or Sam were really in character. Alan has several patients that are causing more than the usual headaches. One, a former patient just returned to Boulder, wants Alan's help in bringing her husband to justice for the murder of the women he had had affairs with. Several others had revealed intimate secrets to Alan that suddenly found their way to the press or the cops. Meanwhile, Sam has had a heart attack and found that it isn't just his heart under attack but his whole life. It's more deeply psychological than some of the other books but in other ways it's more surface. Good, but not as mesmerizing as the last few. On the other hand, the last few books have all tried different narrative styles which has allowed White to bring more three dimensionality to characters. That's always a good thing. "

    " This book was loaned by a friend. I wasn't expecting much, but I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. A psychologist receives a call from a patient he'd seen many years before, and she confides in him that she believes her husband is responsible for the deaths of as many as 5 women - one of them her close friend. I was so into this book that I even read it while my boyfriend was TV. Good stuff. "

    " Another in the Alan Gregory series. Interestingly though, books in this series use different narrative formats; sometimes Gregory is at the center, sometimes not. But White is always compulsively readable. "

    " When a patient tells the psychologist her husband is a serial killer, just what is he allowed to reveal? His patient won't let him tell everything and his ethics are definitely tried. I really liked this. "
