Museum of Desire: An Alex Delaware Novel
Museum of Desire: An Alex Delaware Novel | Jonathan Kellerman
8 posts | 8 read | 1 reading | 4 to read
Psychologist Alex Delaware and detective Milo Sturgis struggle to make sense of a seemingly inexplicable massacre in this electrifying psychological thriller from the #1 New York Timesbestselling master of suspense. LAPD Lieutenant Milo Sturgis has solved a lot of murder cases. On many of them--the ones he calls "different"--he taps the brain of brilliant psychologist Dr. Alex Delaware. But neither Alex nor Milo are prepared for what they find on an early morning call to a deserted mansion in Bel Air. This one's beyond different. This is predation, premeditation, and cruelty on a whole new level. Four people have been slaughtered and left displayed bizarrely and horrifically in a stretch limousine. Confounding the investigation, none of the victims seems to have any connection to any other, and a variety of methods have been used to dispatch them. As Alex and Milo make their way through blind alleys and mazes baited with misdirection, they encounter a crime so vicious that it stretches the definitions of evil. The Museum of Desire is classic Kellerman at his psychopathological best.

I find Kellerman‘s Alex Delaware series to be reliably good — except for that one book I wish I hadn‘t read — and this one is no exception. The mystery is interesting; 3 people are killed at a party and left in a pose in a limo. But why? The denouement was a surprise (and a little gross). John Rubenstein, as always, does a great job with the audiobook; I never have a problem distinguishing characters. #audiowalk

This one was definitely more evil than his norm and I was slightly unsatisfied with the ending. However, I definitely enjoyed it and love following Milo and Alex on their journey to justice.

I love John Rubinstein, who narrates the Alex Delaware books, so the latest one is my new walking book. The non-beach pictures are from the pitcher plant bog, but the plants aren‘t out yet. #audiowalk

Detective Milo Reed calls Alex Delaware with a case he has just been called to. There is a limo with four dead bodies, the driver and three passengers. Each of the victims have a different history and there doesn't seem to be a connection between the people.
This is number 35 in the Alex Delaware series. You know these books are sellers if you have that many. I love the twists and intrigue through out the book.

I finished this book on my lunch hour, and I waited all day to review it in the hopes that it would grow on me, but, nope. I usually love Alex Delaware novels because I love the characters, and the story is usually a true psychological thriller, but this one was just plain boring. Gruesome, but boring. 3 stars is generous.

Milo and Alex are called out to a murder scene where they find four people dead in a stretch limo. One is a good looking man, one is an older woman and the other is a young man. The driver of the limo is also dead; however, they weren‘t killed at the scene, they were placed there - almost like a scene in a movie. Why did these 4 people with nothing in common get murdered? Of course, Milo and Alex are going to figure it out. #wintergames #TBR
