About the book

Psychologist Alex Delaware and LAPD Lieutenant Milo Sturgis investigate a connection between two seemingly unrelated violent incidents. The narrative follows their collaborative process as they analyze forensic evidence and psychological profiles to uncover a hidden link between the victims. Delaware provides clinical insight into the motives behind the crimes, while Sturgis navigates the procedural obstacles within the police department. Their investigation leads them through various Los Angeles neighborhoods, piecing together a sequence of events that reveals a singular, underlying criminal objective.

Readers who value meticulous police procedurals and clinical analysis look to this series for its focus on logical deduction. The book appeals to those interested in the technical intersection of behavioral science and criminal investigation. Readers finish the story with a detailed understanding of how psychological assessment assists in solving complex homicides. It provides a methodical look at the partnership between civilian consultants and law enforcement when navigating internal bureaucracy and forensic puzzles.
