Dr. Morton Handler practiced a strange brand of psychiatry. Among his specialties were fraud, extortion, and sexual manipulation. Handler paid for his sins when he was brutally murdered in his luxurious Pacific Palisades apartment. The police have no leads, but they do have one possible witness: seven-year-old Melody Quinn.

Twelve-year-old Billy Straight - precocious, heartbreakingly perceptive, relentlessly moral - has fled the chaos and abuse of his life at home and is fighting to survive on L.A.'s meanest streets. All alone, Billy has fashioned a precarious existence for himself, using principled tricks to nourish his body and his mind. Late one night he watches from his hiding place as a man viciously butchers a woman. Billy becomes the center of terrifying attention - from the media, from violent bounty hunters, and from the murderer himself.

In Jonathan Kellerman's gripping novels, the city of Los Angeles is as much a living, breathing character as the heroes and villains who roam its labyrinthine streets. Sunny on the surface but shadowy beneath, this world of privilege and pleasure has a dark core and a dangerous edge. In True Detectives, Kellerman skillfully brings his renowned gifts for breathless suspense and sharp psychological insight to a tale that resonates on every level and satisfies at every turn.

Brilliant, beautiful, and stunningly effective, psychologist Dr. Grace Blades has a special gift for treating troubled souls and healing tormented psyches - perhaps because she bears her own invisible scars. Only five years old when she witnessed her parents die in a bloody murder-suicide, Grace took refuge in her towering intellect and found comfort in the loving couple who adopted her. But as an adult, Grace's accomplished professional life vies with a covert, high-risk dark side, played out harrowingly. And when Grace's two worlds shockingly converge, her past returns with a vengeance.

Eccentric, reclusive Walter Rennert lies cold at the bottom of his stairs. At first glance the scene looks straightforward: a once-respected psychology professor done in by booze and a bad heart. But his daughter, Tatiana, insists that her father has been murdered, and she persuades Clay Edison to take a closer look at the grim facts of Rennert's life. What emerges is a history of scandal and violence and an experiment gone horribly wrong that ended in the brutal murder of a coed.

Detective Jacob Lev wakes one morning, dazed and confused: He seems to have picked up a beautiful woman in a bar the night before, but he can't remember anything about the encounter, and before he knows it, she has gone. But this mystery pales in comparison to the one he's about to be called on to solve. Newly reassigned to a Special Projects squad he didn't even know existed, he's sent to a murder scene far up in the hills of Hollywood Division.

Publisher's Summary

Børnepsykologen Alex Delaware bliver endnu engang bedt om at hjælpe politiet i deres jagt på en forskruet seriemorder, der hærger Los Angeles' gader. Efterforskningen fører Delaware og efterforskeren Sturgis til et fængsel for psykisk syge kriminelle. Seriemorderen, der stadig terroriserer byen, myrder efter et mønster, der minder om en af de indsattes fremgangsmåde i de forbrydelser, han sidder i fængsel for.

I løbet af efterforskningen bliver Delaware og Sturgis i tvivl om, hvorvidt en uskyldig mand er blevet dømt for de tidligere mord, og om hans kriminelle tendenser i virkeligheden skyldes fejlmedicinering og ikke en egentlig psykisk lidelse.

Jonathan Kellerman (f. 1949) følger i sine romaner psykologen Alex Delaware, som hjælper politiet med at opklare forbrydelser. Kellerman er selv børnepsykolog, og dette gør ham i stand til at kombinere den traditionelle kriminalroman med elementer fra den psykologiske thriller.

Kellermans bøger er blevet oversat til adskillige sprog, og han har vundet flere priser for sine mange bestsellere. Ud over Delaware-romanerne har han skrevet essays, non-fiction, anden skønlitteratur og illustreret børnebøger.

Psykologen Alex Delaware samarbejder med Los Angeles' politi om at opklare særligt indviklede forbrydelser. Romanen adskiller sig fra den klassiske kriminalroman ved sine realistiske psykologiske elementer og sympatiske og komplicerede hovedperson.

Ved sin empatiske og forstående tilgang til de mennesker, der er involverede i forbrydelserne, er Alex Delaware langt mere effektiv end den typiske hårdkogte detektiv.
