Alex Delaware series : 25 : 2010
Book purchased yesterday from the Salvos store in Croydon to read and release.
From back cover:
"Elise Freeman's chilling cry for help 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 a presigious LA prep school. If ever homicide detective Milo Sturgis 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. Alex and Milo must penetrate the citadel of wealth and scholarship to expose the disturbing secrets and deadly sins festering amongs LA's elite. But power and position are not easily surrendered, and Alex and Milo may well be walking into a highly polished death trap. . ."
FYI: Jonathan Kellerman.

Hmmm. Not too sure I enjoyed this that much. Certainly not as much as others by this author, and not sure why. Lack of bodies ? Lack of understanding of the US school system ?
Story-line seemed somewhat contrived, with a very promising beginning, and seemed to become bogged-down with characters I wasn't that interested in.
Here's hoping future readers enjoy it more than I did.

Book has been neatly covered to protect it on its journey, with a special sticker on the front.
