Hannah Grant had volunteered to cover Alan Gregory's practice over the Christmas period, but when he and another colleague called at her office they discovered her body, the cause of death not clear. Then on Christmas Day itself a fourteen-year-old girl is reported missing - eight years to the day after another missing child had been discovered murdered - a girl who had she lived would have been fourteen. Then it emerges that the parents of the latest missing girl had been treated by Alan some years ago, and recently the girl herself had consulted Hannah. Could any of these tangential connections prove to be links to both deaths and the missing girl, or are they mere coincidences? And should Alan break the seal of patient/doctor confidentiality if the few strands of knowledge he has can throw light on any of these mysteries?

Can you make a psychologist the protagonist of a detective novel after twenty years or so of Alex Delaware? Tricky. The book itself is well told but the story is extremely constructed and artificial to the point that it's hard to take seriously.

a good pyschological thriller
4 April 2005
By A. Christie
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
In the 13th installment of the series, Alan Gregory gets involved in searching for the missing Mallory Miller. Psychologist Gregory treated her parents for one session years earlier. Also missing is his colleague Diane Estevez who disappeared in Las Vegas when she went to for Mallory's schizophrenic mother.
There are several plotlines working in this novel starting with the death of Hannah Grant, a friend and colleague of Diane and Alan. It keeps things interesting, but at the some time you really have to pay attention because the story can get confusing. Alan is a fascinating character dealing with the fine line of doctor /patient confidentiality when Diane goes missing. I have loved several of Stephen White's books. This one is not my favorite, but it is still very good.

Mr. White has brought his fans another installment in his Allen Gregory series. A missing teenager, with ties to the infamous kidnapping of the "Little Beauty Queen" of Boulder history. As the threads unravel in this mystery, you are brought up to date on old friends and what is happening with them. It has enough tension to keep you turning the pages of this well written mystery. You are introduced to people with many and veried problems, both mental and physical. You are skillfully drawn into the lives of these people and you hold your breath with Allen as he turns another corner in this mystery. You can shake your head at his professional conundrum of ethics and the moral thing to do.
For Stephen White fans this is a must read, for everyone else it's a good way to meet the people that live in Stephen Whites Boulder Colorado. Find a comfy chair, good lighting and settle down for an enjoyable read.

UNPREDICTABLE, QUIETLY THRILLING READ!!!!!!!!

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I loved this book! If you are interested in Psychology you will love this book too. I don't discuss plot but you never know where this story is going. It's got many angles to keep your interest and the characters are fun and thought provoking. You never even know if a crime has actually been committed until things start to move between Las Vegas and Boulder, Co. Stephen White gets better with every book and the dilemnas that face therapists are intricately described. Worth your time.
