Jonathan Kellerman, America's foremost author of psychological suspense and one of the world's most consistently bestselling novelists, turned from a distinguished career in child psychology to writing full-time. He has authored twelve Alex Delaware novels--including When the Bough Breaks, Devil's Waltz, The Clinic, and Survival of the Fittest--as well as the thriller The Butcher's Theater, two volumes of psychology, and two children's books. A nonfiction book of his on violent children is soon to be published. He and his wife, the novelist Faye Kellerman, have four children.
ting, astute, high-tension thriller, the creator of psychologist sleuth Alex Delaware weaves a Dickensian tale of innocence, urban depravity, and the resilience of the human spirit, and brings to the page one of the most endearing and finely drawn characters in contemporary fiction.
Twelve-year-old Billy Straight--precocious, heartbreakingly perceptive, relentlessly moral--has fled the chaos and abuse of his life at home and is fighting to survive on L.A.'s meanest streets. All alone, Billy has fashioned a precarious existence for himself, using principled tricks to nourish his body and his mind. Late one night he watches from his hiding place as a man viciously butchers a woman. The victim turns out to be the ex-wife of a television celebrity with a history of domestic violence, and Billy becomes the center of terrifying attention--from the media, from violent bounty hunters, and from the murderer himself. As he runs for his life
