Dr. Alex Delaware, a child psychologist, uses his training and insight to help police solve crimes, often working alongside LAPD detective Milo Sturgis in Jonathan Kellerman’s mystery suspense series.

Fans of the books are drawn to the compelling main characters, engaging plots, and expertly crafted whodunnits packed with plenty of twists and turns. While the stories can be gritty and graphic, these elements always serve to heighten the suspense and thrills..

As one of the longest-running American detective series in history, Kellerman’s series allows each book to be enjoyed individually. However, longtime fans recommend reading at least the first few books to get a proper introduction to Dr. D and his friend Milo.
