'Family disputes are a cop's most dreaded calls.....' That about sums it up. This isn't, in my opinion Kellerman's best novel but it needs to be read if you're following Alex Delaware's career. It has its highs and lows, like most of life, and this figures in one of his lower patches. Less realistic than some of Kellerman's work, it revolves around a sick child and the sadness in people's lives. You need to stick with it and some might find that hard. Let's face it, we all want a bit of escapism, sufficient realism to make it believable, some edge-of-the-seat thrills, chills, spills, and, if not a happy ending, then at least hope. Kellerman delivers all but there is more than his usual tinge of sadness that tends to stay just that bit too long.

Blood Test 17 Jan 2009
By molko VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
'Blood Test' is the second in Jonathan Kellerman's Alex Dellaware series, the first being the in my oppinion superior; When the Bough Breaks. This story invites us to follow Dellaware as he tries to track down a child cancer patient that has been kidnapped from the hospital by is family. And in turn Alex uncovers some home truths kept by the family of the sick boy.
It is a good enough book, the first half is pretty quick paced and really grabs you in but I felt that is started to lag in the second half. There's some un-neccesary chapters about hybrid fruits and I would have liked to have read some more about Alex's friend, gay cop Milo Sturgis, who i feel is an appealing enigma of a character.
In conclusion this is not the best Alex Dellaware book but, like the previous poster commented, must be read if you are following the series.

The usual mix that you get with Alex Delaware and Milo Sturgis. If you like this genre this is a book for you and will not disappoint. The story line is good and has the usual mix of humour and dark happenings. I enjoyed it.
