About the Book

People are voluntarily dying before their time in California. Some call it assisted suicide when cancer or heart disease or painful old age make the quality of life unbearable. Others say it is murder, that no-one has the right to help others take their own life. As the debate rages over whether euthanasia should be legalised or not the man at the centre of the row, nick-named Doctor Death, continues his work. Dr Alex Delaware joins in the argument, but when Detective Milo Sturgis comes to him with the suspicion that some of Doctor Death's patients are not willing collaborators, Delaware finds himself on the front line of the affair, and increasingly believes that euthanasia is not the prime motivation. So what is driving Doctor Death to kill so many?

Review :
First rate. DAILY EXPRESS The author makes it a real edge-of-seat thriller. He is truly a master of suspense. PUBLISHING NEWS Dr Eldon Mate, aka Doctor Death, has been the bane of the Los Angeles DA's existence, the bete noir of all opposed to assisted suicide and the angel of mercy to countless "travellers" who have found their reward via Mate's dubious vocation. He's also turned up in the back of his van, attached to his own death-dealing "Humanitron" machine and too far away from most of his blood and a certain external organ. Enter Milo Sturgis, LA's only openly gay homicide detective and for the 14th time in 15 years (1985's award-winning When the Bough Breaks through to 1999's Monster), enter also his good friend, child psychologist and LAPD consultant Dr Alex Delaware. Unbe After hearing the details of the murder, I felt better. The butchery didn't seem like Richard's style. Though how sure of that could I be? Richard hadn't disclosed any more about himself than he'd wanted to. In control, always in control. One of those peo Maybe. But the fact is that there's no shortage of motivated suspects from both within and outside the late doctor's circle of influence. And as usual, Jonathan Kellerman (himself a child psychologist and recognised authority in childhood psychopathology)
