Description

When child psychologist Dr. Alex Delaware is called in to evaluate a young cancer patient who then disappears, he must search for answers in this thrilling novel in the New York Times bestselling Alex Delaware series.

Dr. Alexander Delaware, a child psychologist in Los Angeles, is called in to evaluate the case of a leukemia patient whose parents want to discontinue chemotherapy. When the boy disappears from the hospital and his parents are found dead, the only leads are the boy's sensual older sister and a holistic-meditative cult called The Touch. Delaware's search for the child takes him to a small town near the Mexican border where he finally unearths the dark secrets kept by the boy's family and the townspeople. He also uncovers drugs and group sex in the commune and survives a few harrowing attempts on his life.

Kellerman draws on his experience as a clinical psychologist to enrich and broaden his considerable storytelling talents in this "suspenseful thriller whose solution lies in the darker recesses of the human soul" (The Wall Street Journal).

    This is another in the excellent Dr. Alex Delaware series...there may be a Davenport series, but not by this author to my knowledge.
