Can Alex solve one of his most thrilling cases yet?
New York Times No. 1 bestseller Jonathan Kellerman gives psychologist Alex Delaware a gruesome and twisting case to unravel in Monster, the gripping thirteenth instalment. Perfect for fans of Harlan Coben and David Baldacci.
'Ingenious and horrifying' -The Sunday Times
A corpse is found in a car trunk. The victim was a twenty-five-year-old would-be actor called Richard Dada. He had been sawn in half. Eight months later, the body of Claire Argent, a psychologist at a hospital for the criminally insane, is discovered. She was mutilated in the same horrific way.
Detective Milo Sturgis is put on the case and, when the incoherent ramblings of a patient locked up in a mental hospital for the criminally insane begin to make terrifying sense, he calls on psychologist Alex Delaware to help him delve into the muddy waters of insanity.
Can Alex and Milo unravel this dark web of family secrets, vengeance and manipulation in time to stop further killing?
What readers are saying about Monster:
'Intelligent and thought-provoking'
'Creepy, compelling and realistic'
'Another well written and intriguing Kellerman novel'
