A gripping new thriller featuring psychologist Alex Delaware from the Number One New York Times bestselling master of suspense.

The electrifying new Alex Delaware thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling master of suspense.

At 5am in the upscale neighbourhood of Westwood Village, two removal men are making a routine pick-up when they make a fatal hit. It's a manβ€”who appeared from nowhereβ€”naked and with no means of identification.

Not long after, a woman is found dead in a house nearby, which neighbours suspect to be a brothel. Could the man have come from there?

When LAPD homicide lieutenant Milo Sturgis calls brilliant psychologist Alex Delaware to the scene, the case gets even more complicated. Delaware has met the woman before. She's a psychologist too.

Are the two deaths linked? Or is there a darker force at work?
