Jonathan Kellerman has brought his expertise as a clinical psychologist to more than thirty bestselling crime novels. He is one of the world's most popular authors, creating plots and characters that are among the most unusual and convincing in crime fiction. He has won the Goldwyn, Edgar, and Anthony awards and has been nominated for a Shamus Award.

5.0 out of 5 stars Careful -- you'll be hooked and he's written a lot more !!! 3 April 1997
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is a chilling mystery (the twist - the protagonist is a child psychologist) about parents suspected of harming their baby. It is a completely engrossing book -- I started to read it at a world-class resort in Hawaii, and I saw very little of the resort! After finishing Devil's Waltz, I read most of the other books in the series (there are quite a few) and I already have "EYES" looking for his next one!

It is brilliant to have the main character be someone OTHER than a cop or a jaded P.I.!! Having now read most of the books in the series, I am delighted by the development of all the leading characters across the years of the series. This book, I think, is still my favorite, though.

Kellerman is really skillful at maintaining continuity and evolving their personalities at the same time. I strongly suggest reading the whole series. I hope Mr. Kellerman never tires of Alex Delaware (the psychologist).

3.0 out of 5 stars OK but no more 15 Mar 2009
By A B
Format:Paperback
I am a big fan of Jonathan Kellerman and have read a good number of the Alex Delaware books and while I didn't think one is all that bad I found it a bit of a slow starter. In fact it probably took about 300 of the 500 or so pages to really come to life. If you haven't read one of these books before then this isn't the best to choose as an introduction as it might put you off buying any more which would be a shame.

The most disappointing thing about this book (I've got the 2008 reprint) was the number of typo errors I found, there must have been about ten. I don't know if Headline no longer employ proof readers but whatever the reason this needs sorting out as this shodiness doesn't do their reputation any good at all.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sloooow starter!! 13 July 1999
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This was the 3rd book I read of the Delaware series. I was very unentertained with the introduction. I think if the introduction would have been shorter it wouldn't have been so easy to put it down in the beginning. When the climax finally arrived it held my interest the rest of the book. I hadn't heard of Munchausen syndrome by proxy before so that helped keep my interest. This book has you playing detective in your own mind while you read only to find out in the end that you better keep your day job. It was written good on the terminology lingo, you didn't yearn for a medical dictionary to be able to pronounce the lingo. It is a good book if you can force yourself to keep reading during the introduction.
