The amazing thing about the Kellerman books is there is a murder and seemingly no leads as to who did it. But the characters treat the murder as a puzzle to solve. Bit by bit they are able to piece together just in time the identity of the killer(s). This is a well written and thought out story. Four stars were awarded to this book. Another great offering from a master in psychological-themed thrillers, this book delves into the a shape shifter and seemingly unconnected murders. It features Alex Delaware and a newly-healed Milo Sturgis, and starts with a tipsy twit who thought her other friend was going to be the designated driver for the evening. Then there is a financial genius who mentions his luxury car was stolen but returned, and a request by a condemned death row inmate who can offer the whereabouts for a missing 15 year old young man, and you have threads and twists of those threads that kept my attention riveted. What I like about Kellerman's writing is how well and compassionately he draws his characters. Yes, Alex and Milo are able to pull all-nighters and speak in coherent sentences the next day, which is a trademark of any detective fiction, but throw in a whiny son and a sex-changed prostitute and a potential suspect who seems to disappear and re-appear at will, and I found myself reading "just one more" to find out what, really, was going to happen next. Review: “Compulsion” by Jonathan Kellerman. It started out slow then flowed smoothly up to the slow drawn out ending. I feel this wasn’t one of Jonathan Kellerman’s best but still a good read. It started out with a missing young girl which led to a stolen Bentley. Then the story moves on to a witness claiming a man about the age of 40, getting out of a luxurious Mercedes ran up to an older lady and murdered her while she was walking out into her driveway to retrieve her morning newspaper. As the psychologist/detective Alex Delaware begins his investigation on these two incidents he also has a sixteen year old unsolved mystery of a young teenage boy disappearing while selling magazines house to house re-opened that he was working on. The story reminded me of a Sherlock Holmes book. Interesting, intriguing, suspense, and having a mastermind put together all the connections and confusion of disguises and compulsions…… nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Once again, Delaware and Sturgis are investigating what appears to be unrelated murders and they finally pull all the threads together. There is a certain regularity about the books that fosters a sense of comfort (but can also be a little frustrating, where you hope he'd come up with another plot device occasionally).
