[PDF] Alex Delaware #5 Time Bomb by Jonathan Kellerman, Edgar Award winner Jonathan Kellerman once more explores the corruption of California and produces a novel of complex characterizations and nonstop suspense.

Psychologist Dr. Alex Delaware was called. Unfortunately, by the time he reached the school, the damage was done. A sniper had opened fire on a crowded playground, but was gunned down before any children were hurt.

"Though a time bomb is ticking away at the heart of this novel, readers will forget to watch the clock once they begin it." 'Chicago Sun Times.'

While the TV news crews feasted on the scene, Alex began his therapy sessions with the traumatized children. But he couldn't escape the image of a slight teenager clutching an oversized rifle. What was behind the name and face? A would-be assassin, or just another victim beneath an indifferent California sky?

Intrigued by a request from the sniper's father to conduct a "psychological autopsy" of his child, Alex begins to uncover a strange pattern of innocence, neglect, and loss. Then suddenly it is more than a pattern, it is a trail of blood. In the dead sniper's past was a dark and vicious plot. And in Alex Delaware's future is the stuff of grown-up nightmares: the face of real human evil.
