“Flesh and Blood” By Jonathan Kellerman
Review #144
An Alex Delaware Psychological Suspense Novel
Alex Delaware chalked up his attempt at helping a young, defiant, angry teenager by the name of Lauren Teague, as a failure when she walked out of his office and out of his professional life. Ten years later, Teague and Delaware meet at a stag party where Teague appears as the night's entertainment. However, the reunion is short lived. Four years later, when her body turns up in a dumpster. Delaware, the avenging angel in pursuit of justice, is determined to find the person who committed the crime.
There is no shortage of suspects or motives for Lauren had led a complicated, secretive life. A party girl, straight A college student, generous to children and friends down on their luck, exquisite personal taste coupled with ugly job skills; Lauren has had bad luck, and it is catching.
Kellerman takes a walk through the wild, seedy side of life where pornography is king and call-girls are nothing more than a replaceable commodity.
Jonathan Kellerman is amongst my top 10 favorite writers.
