With scores of millions of books in print, translation into
two dozen languages, and one of the most popular heroes in
contemporary fiction to his name, #1 New York Times bestselling
author Jonathan Kellerman is the unequivocal “master of the
psychological thriller” (People). In his newest novel Kellerman
delivers a tour de force–poignant, dark, and chilling–that
illuminates a shadowy world where impulse rules.
Tanya Bigelow was a solemn little girl when Dr. Alex Delaware
successfully treated her obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Now, at
nineteen, she still seems older than her years–but her problems go
beyond hyper-maturity. Patty Bigelow, Tanya’s aunt and adoptive
mother, has made a deathbed confession of murder and urged the
young woman to seek Delaware’s help. The doctor recalls Patty as a
selfless E.R. nurse struggling to raise a child on her own–a woman
seemingly incapable of the “terrible thing” she has admitted. But
for Tanya’s peace of mind, Delaware agrees to investigate, and he
enlists LAPD detective Milo Sturgis in the search for the phantom
victim of a crime that may never have occurred.
Armed with only the vaguest details, psychologist and cop follow
a trail twisting from L.A.’s sleaziest low-rent districts to its
overblown mansions, retracing Patty and Tanya’s nomadic and
increasingly puzzling life to the doorsteps of a sullen heroin
addict; a randy real-estate broker; and a brilliant, enigmatic
physics student. Suddenly a very real murder tears open a
terrifying tunnel into the past, where secrets–and bodies–are
buried. As the tension mounts, Delaware and Sturgis uncover a
tangled history of desperation, vengeance, and death–a legacy of
evil that refuses to die.
Dramatic, action-packed, and filled with the psychological detail
that only Jonathan Kellerman can provide, Obsession is a whodunit,
a whydunit–and something unique: a did-it-even-happen? This is
Kellerman at his heart-racing best.
