When his brief, passionate romance with nurse Jocelyn Banks is cut short by her kidnapping and brutal murder, Dr. Jeremy Carrier is left emotionally devastated, haunted by his lover's grisly demise and warily eyed by police still seeking a prime suspect in the unsolved slaying. To escape the pain, he buries himself in his work as staff psychologist at City Central Hospital, only to be drawn deeper into a waking nightmare when more women turn up murdered in the same gruesome fashion as Jocelyn Banks...and the suspicion surrounding Jeremy intensifies. Now, the only way to prove his innocence and put his torment to rest is to follow the trail of a cunning psychopath.

Spurring on Jeremy's investigation is Dr. Arthur Chess, an enigmatic pathologist who specializes in examining the dead, but harbors a keen fascination with the darker deeds committed by the living. Arthur draws Jeremy into an unexpected friendship, and into the confidence of a cryptic society devoted to matters unknown and unspoken. When he suddenly slips away, Jeremy is left to contend with an onslaught of anonymous clues and the growing realization that a harrowing game of cat and mouse has been set in motion.

But who besides Jeremy is playing? And who is making the rules? Before the killer strikes again, Jeremy races to connect the disturbing puzzle pieces being fed to him. Yet his search for answers only seems to yield more questions. And deepening the mystery is the undeniable presence of someone watching it all, and guiding Jeremy's investigation from behind the scenes. As the game intensifies, Jeremy must decide if a secret ally is setting him on the right path...or a sadistic enemy is setting him up for a fate far beyond even the most twisted imagination.

Any additional comments?

A good story, but I swear I have read at least 2 other books with very similar plots and characters. Therefore many elements were very predictable. Still love Kellerman though!

Good story - a little predictable

I've read most of John Kellerman's books but this was not among my favorites. The story seemed to drag a lot, to the point where I almost stopped listeniing. However, I finished listening and saw how it all came together with a satisying conclusion. His characters were interesting, sometimes colrful, and well - developed

Kellerman seems to get better with each novel. In "The Conspiracy Club" he finally gets past the point-of-view switching which so badly mars his otherwise terrific Delaware-Sturgis mysteries. The story stays with Jeremy Carrier, an excellent character: a good person who doesn't know he's good. Carrier's painful emergence from emotional numbness (following a traumatic loss) is convincingly portrayed and, even better, his coming back to life is intertwined with his deepening involvement in an ingeniously plotted double mystery.

Overall story was well written. However, it was difficult to continue to listen the the monotone voice of the narrator.

Not his best

Loved the audio performance and especially the MUSIC and the characters were mysterious and creepy

Hauntingly Delicious

This is my first book by this author and I enjoyed it very much. I was impressed the narrator pronounced the medical terms so well. My only beef was that the character did some things that seemed pretty unbelievable but overall a great book. I'll read more of Kellerman.

well done

An interesting story, good plot not in the same class as Stig Larson's Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series but close.

I found the author's extended vocabulary a little unnecessary and detracted from the story rather than adding to it. In audio format the vocabulary sounds particularly pretentious but it ceased to bug me toward the end of the book. On a few occasions I was confronted with some unknown words, in audio format this is distracting because the story moves on and you tend to miss the next few sentences while your trying to take in the new word. What is a "Fistula" anyway?

The performance was ok, understandable but there are much better narrators out there.

Interesting story bit of a slow start

Took a long time to get going. I've read all of the Alex Delaware so you can imagine my disappointment.

not enough legs...

A nice departure from the Alex Delaware series. I enjoyed the mystery as well as the insight into the lead character. It was nice to have an intellectual hero instead of the physical for a change. A real view of the way violence can change people.
