Search - The Lesson of Her Death

Deaver is in a class by himself as far as mystery writers go. His characters are real people, warts and all, no sugar coating the personalities. He explores their weaknesses and their faults and make them very vulnerable to the horrors that they experience.

Spellbinding. A college sudent is murdered. Investigator Bill Corde is appalled by the murder, then finds out his own learning impaired daughter may be a friend of the murderer. Very thrilling.

This was a real page-turner all the way for me...
