  • "Lauren Teague is a beautiful, defiant, borderline delinquent teenager when her parents bring her to Dr. Alex Delaware's office. Lauren angrily resists Alex's help--and the psychologist is forced to chalk Lauren up as one of the inevitable failures of his profession. Years later, when Alex and Lauren come face-to-face in a shocking encounter, both doctor and patient are stricken with shame. But the ultimate horror takes place when, soon after, Lauren's brutalized corpse is found dumped in an alley. Alex disregards the advice of his trusted friend, LAPD detective Milo Sturgis, and jeopardizes his relationship with longtime lover, Robin Castagna, in order to pursue Lauren's killer. As he investigates his young patient's troubled past, Alex enters the shadowy worlds of fringe psychological experimentation and the sex industry--and then into mortal danger, when lust and big money collide in an unforgiving Los Angeles."@en

  • "To Alex Delaware, Lauren Teague was nothing but a distant memory, a memory of a case that failed. She had been a beautiful, rebellious teenager teetering on the brink of delinquency. In her two therapy sessions, she had been evasive, defiant, and almost entirely uncommunicative. Then she had missed her third session. That was all, and that was all years ago. Now, Delaware recognizes her as the featured entertainment at a stag party, and both of them are filled with shame. Then, Lauren's savagely beaten body turns up on the street. Delaware wants to investigate the murder, though both Detective Milo Sturgis and Robin Castagna are against it; it's a sure way to find trouble, and Delaware does."@en
  • "Sometimes home is the last place you want to go. When Alex Delaware first saw Lauren Teague she was a sullen teenager with the usual problems: bad grades at school, moody, uncommunicative with her parents - which is why they thought she needed to see a psychologist. Years later, at a bachelor party for a colleague, Delaware finds himself uncomfortably watching two strippers performing a degrading display - and one of them is Lauren League. And now Lauren's mother is pleading for Delaware's help once again. Lauren has disappeared - and she thinks that he can find her. He's not so sure, but when Lauren's disappearance turns into a murder investigation, he knows that he owes it to the dead girl to find out what demons drove her to such a horrifying end."
