Obsession by Jonathan Kellerman

    Alex Delaware is a psychologist who has appeared in many Kellerman novels.  I enjoy the fact that you can delve right back into these lovable characters without much background or reminder of who they are.  Even someone who picked this up unaware that they are recurring characters would find them lovable ad real.
    This novel tackles a touch cold case sparked by a death-bed confession.  The secrets unwind to reveal secrets buried all over the state.  I enjoyed trying to figure this one out with Delaware and his friends.  I did think the plot slowed a bit too much in the middle, but otherwise another great novel.
     Three smiles for this one.
