Doctor Death (Alex Delaware) Book

Someone who kills a lot of people is a serial killer, except, perhaps, when they all wanted to die, and he is an advocate of euthanasia. Doctor Mate Doctor Death is found brutally tortured to death, strapped to his own painless death machine and tough LA cop Milo finds himself lumbered with the investigation. His usual adviser, psychologist Alex Delaware, has problems about helping him--Delaware treated the daughter of one of the women Mate helped die, and her father and brother both become suspects. An FBI man with a mission to track a serial killer in whom no one else believes involves himself in the case, claiming that two completely different sets of killings down the years can be attributed to the same man. Jonathan Kellerman has an inventive eye to the oddities of human nature and the things that lead people to kill--he is also solidly imaginative on the process of legwork which makes it possible to back up insights with actual knowledge. Doctor Death is a powerful and ingenious thriller in which Milo and Alex yet again discover things they never knew about the darkness of the human soul and about the limits of revenge. --Roz KaveneyRead More
