Description
The closing of the grand old Fauborg Hotel in Beverly Hills is a sad occasion for longtime patrons Alex Delaware and Robin Castagna, who go there one last time for cocktails. But even more poignant—and curious—is a striking young woman in elegant attire and dark glasses, alone there and waiting in vain. Two days later, police detective Milo Sturgis comes seeking his psychologist comrade’s insights about a grisly homicide. To Alex’s shock, the brutalized victim is the same beautiful woman whose lonely hours sipping champagne at the Fauborg may have been her last. But when a sordid revelation finally cracks the case open, the secrets that spill out could make Alex and Milo’s best efforts to close this crime not just impossible but fatal.

Bought this book as a book blind date with the tag words "criminal psychologist, DNA, Mystery, Thriller" for fifty pence at a Coop in Cornwall. My expectations were low to say the least... But it was a complete surprise! The book is twenty years old and people use fax machines and print stuff off the Internet, but it was a fun read and I really enjoyed the main character Alex Delaware! It was fun to follow the good old police work and unravel the mystery of "Mystery" 😆 (sorry for that)... I'd totally read another book of the series if I can get my hands on them in Germany!
