false http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172410652m/172938.jpg 172938 25 When L.A. psychologist Alex Delaware receives an elaborate album filled with gruesome crime-scene police photos of a series of apparently unconnected killings, he's stymied. He's also in the midst of a personal crisis--Robin, his long-suffering partner, has made it clear that it's up to Alex to heal the breach in their relationship that's been caused by his over-involvement in criminal investigations. The pictures mean nothing to him, but one image gets his policeman pal Milo Sturgis's immediate attention--the victim was one of his rookie cases, and her murder was never solved, perhaps because someone much higher up in the department didn't want it to be. Was the anonymous mailer attempting to reach Milo through Alex? If so, the package has the desired effect, as the two men team up to find the connection between the cases highlighted in the murder book and whoever sent it. The trail leads to a retired cop, an old mentor of Alex's, and a wealthy, powerful family that will stop at nothing to keep its secrets and its victims buried forever. Kellerman pays more attention to Alex's midlife blues than he needs to, but his focus on Milo's experiences as a gay cop in a homophobic department fits seamlessly into both plot and narrative. <I>--Jane Adams</I> 601282 2002 The Murder Book (Alex Delaware, #16) total:1332|5:11|4:25|3:27|2:3|1:2| 1332 5005 1767 40 172938 0747265011 9780747265016 1187 31 3.76 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172410652m/172938.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/172938.The_Murder_Book 0 1 false Mon Jan 19 14:43:57 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 07 12:38:42 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 19 14:43:57 -0800 2009

The least-good of the Alex Delawares that I've read. There were a lot of logical holes and fantasical things that just didn't hold together. I'm disappointed in you, JK!
