Emma Spire is the daughter of the assassinated Surgeon General of the United States. She has been on the cover of every national magazine. Her beauty, her brains, her bravery - all are public property. Everyone wants a piece of her - and she must escape the feeding frenzy at all costs. But she cannot, and the consequences are deadly. Thus the stage is set for Dr. Alan Gregory's most stunning, brainteasing crisis yet. The Colorado-based psychologist-sleuth must solve a case of twisted desire and terror to save not only a golden girl pursued by the furies of fame but also his wife, Boulder County D.A. Lauren Crowder, imprisoned on suspicion of murder. For it was Lauren who took Emma under her wing, and it was Lauren who pulled the trigger on the mysterious stalker who menaced Emma's safety and sanity. Step by step, amid accelerating acts of terror, Alan Gregory suspects he may be dealing not with a sick mind fixated on a fantasy of female perfection but with deadly greed fueled by a high-tech prize that may be worth billions. Meanwhile, his investigation is turned into a desperate race against time as a medical emergency threatens to turn his wife's incarceration into a death sentence.

"Four stars plus--written in third person, nicely plotted with a shifting timeline, revealing what it's like for anyone (including an assistant D.A.) to be incarcerated. So much for the presumption of innocence. One of Stephen White's better books, which I have been reading out of order. " — Nancy (4 out of 5 stars)
"Four stars plus--written in third person, nicely plotted with a shifting timeline, revealing what it's like for anyone (including an assistant D.A.) to be incarcerated. So much for the presumption of innocence. One of Stephen White's better books, which I have been reading out of order. "
" Though somewhat disappointed with the end--seemed hurried and not as well thought out as the rest of the book--I enjoyed the story in this fifth Alan Gregory series. "
" The main character seemed a little unbelievable, and thinly drawn. Lately, White's plots seem contrived. That being said, I probably will continue to read his Dr. Gregory series. "
" Stephen White gets better with each read. Th is one has so many twists and turns I was almost dizzy. After reading required books for book club I like to read my comfort books. The main character is Alan Gregory a psychologist and his wife Lauren, an ADA in Boulder Colorado. "
" I only got half-way through the first page before I stopped reading it. The prose seems unusually clunky. Can't speak for the whole book, but I'm not going to bother reading it. "
" This book had an interesting plot, and unusual twist to the end. "
" I'm hooked on Stephen White and will be reading him for a while. I love finding a new author that I enjoy and finding out that he's got a 10+ books in that I can catch up on! "
" Like how the series starts to add these kinds of situations, where what's happening isn't obviously legal/allowed. "
" This one puts Lauren in jeopardy, not only for her MS, but as a lawyer accused of murder. Well done as usual. "
" Remote Control (Alan Gregory) by Stephen White (1998) "
" I felt White got in a hurry with his writing the last third of the book. A little loose and hard to follow. Not his best. "
