One of Jonathan Kellerman's Alex Delaware mysteries. I enjoy this series (despite the fact that the quality is getting worse over time) so whenever I see one available secondhand I'll ususally pick it up for release.

From amazon.com: Psychologist Alex Delaware hasn't been in private practice for a long time, but when the mother of a former patient calls and asks for his help, he can't turn her down. He couldn't help Lauren Teague when she was alive, but something about his failure with the beautiful, sullen teenager who grew up to be a high-priced call girl won't let him walk away after her bullet-ridden body turns up in an L.A. dumpster. When she wasn't turning tricks, she was a straight-A student; despite his detective pal Milo's demurral, Alex is convinced there's a connection between Lauren's death and another beautiful UCLA psych major who disappeared a year earlier. With his customary skill and compassion, Jonathan Kellerman draws us deep into Lauren's complicated life, from a university campus to a Malibu estate owned by a wealthy publisher of soft-core porn (who bears a distinct resemblance to the pajama-clad mogul who made a small white bunny famous).

RELEASE NOTES:

Releasing today at Charlestown’s “Art in the Park”. Come on down to see some interesting art and check the benches and the fountains for the books!

I caught this book while walking around an art show in a park. At first, I thought someone had left their skethcbook. I was intrigued. I'm only sorry to say I didn't find the book as interesting as this concept. I look forward to finding the next one!
