Detective Stories (328) Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. So I liked the general theme of twins. Is there such a thing as the evil twin? And the ambiguity in the story. Is it a story of twins, or a story of multiple personality, or both? Who knows. Dr. Delaware manages to solve the mystery although I don't really know how. The story is so convoluted and goes back through history to find the true identity of the victim. So overall this was a confusing read for me, but I still enjoyed it because it was so weird. ( ![]() Review: Pornography, black mail and murder are threads woven together by L.A. psychologist Alex Delaware and his friend, long-time LAPD homicide detective Milo Sturgis, in a fascinating if grizzly look into the psyche and heart of a woman who once loved him in a neuvo riche and decadent Los Angeles.

Jonathan Kellerman keeps digging this "mystery hole"... you feel that you'll never find the ending with all the twists and turns and new information that Alex uncovers!

The bestselling author of When The Bough Breaks, Blood Test, and Over The Edge delivers the most stunning novel yet and featuring psychologist-detective Dr. Alex Delaware. At a party for a controversial Los Angeles sex therapist, Alex encounters a face from his own past--Sharon Ransom, an exquisite, alluring lover who left him abruptly more than a decade earlier. Sharon now hints that he desperately needs help, but Alex evades her. The next day she is dead, an apparent suicide. Driven by guilt and sadness, Alex plunges into the maze of Sharon's life--a journey that will take him through the pleasure palaces of California's ultra-rich, into the dark closets of a family's disturbing past, and finally into the alleyways of the mind, where childhood terrors still hold sway.
