Victims / Jonathan Kellerman / 338 pages

You can't beat Kellerman if you're in the mood for a tense thriller with some meat to it.  Alex Delaware along with LAPD Lt Milo Sturgis go through an extensive police procedural to connect a series of gruesome murders/dissections.  Alex Delaware uses his background and experience as a child psychologist to help make the connections in the mental health world and provide insight into the motives and impulses of the killer.  He is always an interesting character as is Milo Sturgis who has issues of his own.  No spoiler alert...Milo is going to have to deal with something very important that happens at the end of the book.  Recommended.
