Publisher Description

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, no evidence of sexual assault, leaving psychologist Alex Delaware and his friend LAPD homicide detective Milo Sturgis to pose the disturbing question: Why? Working together with Daniel Sharavi, the brilliant Israeli police inspector introduced in Jonathan Kellerman's The Butcher's Theater, 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. Also available on BDD Audio Cassette.

"psychologist Alex Delaware, artist wife, & Milo Sturgis of LAPD // from Lucy Ann // Very good, complex plot; victims all have some relationship with disabilities. Not always the best in police procedures, but maybe that's realistic?"

    " Not bad, although not as good as James Patterson's Alex Cross series, which it's very similar to. He works as a psychologist but hardly seems to have any clients so has plenty of time to investigate mysteries, but still manages to make a living - doesn't seem very realistic. "
