About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
A gripping crime novel featuring Alex Delware from the bestselling master of suspense.
When a photographer is found inside an LA warehouse slumped in bed, shot to death, it sets in motion a complex and dangerous case for Lieutenant Milo Sturgis and Psychologist Alex Delaware.
The victim had just received rave media attention for his latest project—images of homeless people living out their 'dreams'. But there were many who saw the work as crass exploitation.
Did anger turn to homicidal rage? Or do the roots of violence reach down to the victim's own family?
As new murders arise, Alex and Milo must peel back the layers of the case—and will find themselves coming up against in one of the deadliest threats they've ever faced...

Bound by blood but divided by troubles as old as Cain and Abel, Moses Reed and Aaron Fox were first introduced in Kellerman’s bestselling Bones. They are sons of the same strong-willed mother, and their respective fathers were cops, partners, and friends. Their turbulent family history has set them at odds, despite their shared calling.

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.

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.

Fantastic as always
Love the Alex Delaware series. Milo & Alex are such a great duo. I’ve read nearly all of Jonathon Kellerman’s novels, gripping storylines always have me intrigued. Really enjoy narration by John Rubinstein, he puts so much into the books.
