Deception (Alex Delaware series, Book 25)

Jonathan Kellerman

Her name is Elise Freeman, and her chilling cry for help - to whoever may be listening - comes too late to save her. On a DVD found near her lifeless body, the emotionally and physically battered woman chronicles a year-and-a-half-long ordeal of monstrous abuse at the hands of three sadistic tormentors. But even more shocking than the lurid details is the revelation that the offenders, like their victim, are teachers at one of LA's most prestigious prep schools. With Elise dead, homicide detective Milo Sturgis is assigned to probe the hallowed halls of Windsor Prep Academy. And if ever he could use Dr Alex Delaware's psychological prowess, it's now.

From the start, this case promises to be an uphill climb for truth and a down-and-dirty fight for justice. Searching for predators among the privileged, Alex and Milo may well be walking into a highly polished death trap.
