In this installment of the bestselling thriller series starring psychologist Alex Delaware and homicide detective Milo Sturgis, an apparent hoax hides the motives behind an actual crime. After acting students Michaela Brand and Dylan Meserve disappear and then reappear three days later, they claim to have been kidnapped and abused by a carjacker. But questioning and the available evidence poke significant holes in their story, leading officials to charge the pair with inventing their tale. So what are Delaware and Sturgis to make of it when Michaela is murdered and Dylan vanishes again?

Reviews
I think this is one of the best Alex Delaware novels yet. Kellerman has always given the police procedural a fresh perspective through a psychologist's eyes and he writes with realism about the L A scene and that the town that promises to fulfill all your dreams can become a nightmare and even claim your soul both physically and emotionally. This installment was about a series of murders connected to an acting school. The dialogue was clever and crisp and you really get a sense of a character trough these scenes. It was nice to see Robin in his life again too! I have high hopes they will make their relationship work! This is a must read for fans of suspense whether or not you have followed the series.
