stricken with shame. And the ultimate horror takes place when, soon
after, Lauren's brutalized corpse is found dumped in an alley. Alex

Sturgis, and jeopardizes his relationship with longtime lover Robin
Castagna in order to pursue Lauren's murderer. As he investigates his
young patient's troubled past, Alex enters the shadowy worlds of fringe
psychological experimentation and the sex industry, and then into mortal
danger when lust and big money collide in Southern California.Jonathan Kellerman's L.A. is evil, seductive, erotic, and unforgiving, and Flesh and Blood

characters, and topped off by a terrifying climax. This is suspense
