One of the Alex Delaware series - not as good as earlier books but still pretty interesting.

An Alexander Delaware mystery. This one involves an all expense paid trip to the island of Aruk, where all hell breaks loose. A great story.

A really intelligent psychological thriller about a child psychologist, invited by a respected colleague to spend 3 months on a island paradise helping him prepare his papers for publication, only to find the doctor's compulsions possibly more disturbing & dangerous then those of his case study subjects.

A real page turner! Fast and packed with twists and plots. It may be Kellerman's best novel in my opinion. Clever plot.

This is THE best Kellerman novel, period. Atmospheric, suspensful, and at its end is very moving. The author describes very creepy and interesting insects in the book as well. None of Kellerman's work has come close to this one in my opinion. If you like thrillers, this would be a great book for you to try.

From Amazon.com: Another gripping Alex Delaware novel from Kellerman, the king of psychological suspense and author of ten successive New York Times bestsellers. The setting is tropical but the atmosphere is sinister as Delaware probes the secrets of a wealthy scientist/philanthropist and unleashes an uncontrollable chain of violence.

A 1996 and the eleventh of many Alex Delaware mysteries by Kellerman. I read this book a couple years ago, during my Jonathan Kellerman phase, I forgot most of it.

I have been reading Jonathan Kellerman for quite a few years and at one time being my favorite has moved down on my list. I am still reading his books sparingly in order as I have bought most of his in the Alex Delaware series and try to mix them in with some of my other favorite authors that I read more often. The last two books this one included and Self Defense were read with some difficulty. Not that I didn't find them somewhat enjoyable, but at times the intensity and complexity can get you lost in the book. This one fits the title "The Web" as it involves Kellerman's main character Alex Delaware (phycologist/detective) and his love interest Robin, as they happily embark on what they think of as a job organizing medical files to help a fellow Dr. Woodrow Wilson Mooreland, that is loaded with fringe benefits on a paradise Island of Aruk which they see as a tropical vacation. Soon they find there is much more to this Island and the people that they are sharing it with. Trully a Web loaded with many deep characters and all of whom seem to carry personal baggage that we as readers are left to sort out. At times the book bogs down with too many unanswered questions and with too much previously mentioned baggage. Sometimes the story flows well, then at times frustrated you want answers, also at times the book slows and you wish you could just get through it. Determined I finally made it to the final page, not a quick read, but still worth it to get the answers to the mystery.
