<p>The closing of the grand old Fauborg Hotel in Beverly Hills is a sad occasion for longtime patrons Alex Delaware and Robin Castagna, who go there one last time for cocktails. But even more poignant--and curious--is a striking young woman in elegant attire and dark glasses, alone there and waiting in vain. Two days later, police detective Milo Sturgis comes seeking his psychologist comrade's insights about a grisly homicide. To Alex's shock, the brutalized victim is the same beautiful woman whose lonely hours sipping champagne at the Fauborg may have been her last. But when a sordid revelation finally cracks the case open, the secrets that spill out could make Alex and Milo's best efforts to close this crime not just impossible but fatal.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Jonathan Kellerman<br><b>Publisher:</b> Ballantine Books<br><b>Published:</b> 04/24/2012<br><b>Pages:</b> 416<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.50lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 7.40h x 4.10w x 1.10d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780345505705<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br><p><b>Jonathan Kellerman</b> is the #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of more than three dozen bestselling crime novels, including the Alex Delaware series, <i>The Butcher's Theater, Billy Straight, The Conspiracy Club, </i> <i>Twisted, </i>and<i> True Detectives</i>.
