Acerca de esta escucha

In the first Alex Delaware novel, Dr. Morton Handler practiced a strange brand of psychiatry. Among his specialties were fraud, extortion, and sexual manipulation. Handler paid for his sins when he was brutally murdered in his luxurious Pacific Palisades apartment. The police have no leads, but they do have one possible witness: seven-year-old Melody Quinn.

It's psychologist Dr. Alex Delaware's job to try to unlock the terrible secret buried in Melody's memory. But as the sinister shadows in the girl's mind begin to take shape, Alex discovers that the mystery touches a shocking incident in his own past.

This connection is only the beginning, a single link in a 40-year-old conspiracy. And behind it lies an unspeakable evil that Alex Delaware must expose before it claims another innocent victim: Melody Quinn.

the profanity was difficult to hear and the details of the violation against children was very disturbing. the story line and plot was excellent but a lot of the details of the child molestation could have been left out. also some of the detailed descriptions could have been abbreviated.

very disturbing

The narrator was great and he weaved intrigue but the story line about children being molested made my stomach turn. Hopefully Kellemans' Alex Delaware books will be better.

Not Too Sure

The Alex Delaware series started in 1985 and Kellerman, the author, is still writing in this series. It is clearly a popular suspense and mystery series. It is also obvious reading the book why this series was popular and why a TV movie starring Ted Danson was made.

Overall a good story with an interesting plotline. Alex Delaware as a psychologist is skilled at interviewing people and finding information and the entire series is built around the man traveling to locations and talking to people and fitting together the details and information they have to see the bigger picture. He has an excellent sense of people and the book makes clear he has a mind that can think up very troubling perspectives giving him an insight into the disturbed crimes he investigates.

This is a good start to the series and a good adventure plot but its clear as his first novel that Kellerman was on a learning curve and dealing with how to figure out what was extraneous details. There is, as others have pointed out, a very poorly written sex scene that does not serve the plot and honestly makes Alex Delaware look like a bit of a cad since he's in a serious long term relationship at the start of the novel with another woman. I also seriously question the "fist fight with a dog" bit.

So a fun novel but be prepared for some odd choices.

A good start to the series

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, Jonathan Kellerman's Alex Delaware books are terrific!

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

Been John Rubinstein. He's so much better. It would be great if somehow these could be re-released with him doing the narration. He's just so much better.

Needs John Rubinstein!
