I am reviewing the psychological thriller novel Guilt by Jonathan Kellerman which is a very good story and which I bought from a local supermarket. This book is part of the Alex Delaware series featuring a psychologist who works for the police in Los Angeles along with his partner Milo Sturgis. These stories tend to cover serial killings and this is no exception. The story centres on a well to do neighbourhood where there has been a spate of ritual killings done some time ago. The first one discovered is by a lady who is 5 months pregnant and is in a large metal container in a huge tree in her garden at the house she has recently moved into. There has been problems with the tree which has dead wood and it's as one of the large branches comes down, the metal box is exposed. The body has been there quite a long time. There is the body of a baby later discovered and it becomes apparent the killer is a doctor who used to drive an old classis car called a Duisburg and due to its age there are no records of it. They discover there were 3 of these cars in the area. This isn't as good as some of the other stories in the series but is still pretty good. I think When The Bough Breaks is my favourite. Anyway there is a happy ending and the story is nicely paced. Jonathan used to be a very distinguished psychologist prior to becoming an author and has written some factual books on the subject in addition to his thrillers. He is a gifted writer and most of his fiction books are Alex Delaware novels. I am surprised no one has made any of them into films as I they think they would be quite popular.
