About this product
Product Information
The only forensic psychiatrist writing suspense, Keith Ablow is being hailed as the heir to Thomas Harris. Keith Ablow's novels delve deep into that dark and deadly place that Ablow, one of the nation's leading forensic psychiatrists, knows best: the psyche of a killer. Ablow has explored the catacombs of the criminal mind to find out what makes them tick, and he brings that expertise to his new novel, a chilling and emotionally compelling story of the lengths to which one man will go to leave his own life behind. In Murder Suicide , Ablow and his alter-ego, Dr. Frank Clevenger, return to take on a murder case like no other. John Snow is a brilliant inventor who has made millions from his genius in aeronautics. He has everything a man could desire: wealth, family, even a beautiful mistress. But he also has a brain disease, a rare form of epilepsy, that threatens his most valuable possession -- his mind. Only one doctor may be able to cure it surgically, but at a terrible cost, one that Snow reveals to no one: Snow willhave no memory whatsoever of his past - of its emotional entanglements or its secrets. He will be abandoning everyone he has ever known. But the night before he is scheduled to undergo the operation, he is found near the Massachusetts General Hospital, dead of a gunshot wound. Did he commit suicide, as the police suspect - or was he murdered? Forensic psychiatrist Dr. Frank Clevenger delves into Snow's complex past and tortured relationships to unlock the identity of Snow's killer: Was it the wife who can never forgive what he's done to their child and their marriage, the son who loathes him, the beautiful mistress who loves him so deeply but can never have him, or the business partner intent on taking control of his inventions? Only Frank Clevenger can unlock the door to Snow's startling past. And only Keith Ablow can take readers even further into the mind of a killer.

"Murder Suicide poses intriguing questions...When Clevenger calls everyone into the room at the end, his solution and its surprising twist reminds us of the best of Rex Stout's master-manipulator, Nero Wolfe. And that's only one of the good reasons to pick up this tightly plotted book." -- San Antonio Express News "A superior read." -- Entertainment Weekly on PSYCHOPATH "Dr. Frank Clevenger, forensic psychiatrist and (somewhat reluctant) crime-solver, is quickly becoming one of the genre's most intriguing protagonists...A strange and hypnotic thriller...fascinating." -- Booklist on PSYCHOPATH "A tour de force. Ablow is not satisfied with the superficial. He digs deep to create complex characters." -- Orlando Sentinel on PSYCHOPATH "Keith Ablow is king of the psychological thriller. Frank Clevenger is a wonderfully flawed hero, as haunted by his own demons as the sociopaths he faces. Ablow writes like a man possessed - with a pace so blistering the pages will all but singe your hands." --Dennis Lehane, author of MYSTIC RIVER, on COMPULSION "COMPULSION is another really good book by Keith Ablow: compelling, graceful, and nearly impossible to put down." --Robert Parker, author of WIDOW'S WALK, on COMPULSION "Utterly compelling...a roller coaster of a mystery with hairpin twists and turns that shock and astonish. No one burrows into the darkest recesses of the human mind as deeply as Keith Ablow." --Tess Gerritsen, author of THE SURGEON, on COMPULSION "Keith Ablow's setting is the darkest of all-the twists and turns of the human mind. COMPULSION is-pardon the obvious pun-compulsive reading. Great Psychological suspense." --Harlan Coben, author of GONE FOR GOOD, on COMPULSION "Keith Ablow is a master of psychological suspense. This is a dark, taut, terrifying novel, driven by a talented psychiatrist's insights into the human condition. Stoke up the fire, curl up with COMPULSION, and be prepared for a sleepless night." --Michael Palmer, author of FATAL, on COMPULSION "Psychiatrist Frank Clevenger is a hero with heart, soul -- and brains. Fast-paced and frightening, Compulsion is a novel that explores the very nature of evil itself." --Janet Evanovich, author of TEN BIG ONES on COMPULSION "From the first sentence to the last, Compulsion is mesmerizing. A tense and sexy thriller...featuring an utterly shocking, yet thoroughly convincing family of fiends. A tense and sexy thriller stocked to the brim with juicy characters...With deft intelligence, Ablow maps the torturous terrain of the darkest regions of the human heart." --James Hall, author of BLACKWATER SOUND, on COMPULSION "This series just keeps getting better. Frank Clevenger is a real original: a jeans-clad, black-turtleneck-wearing head shaven loner whose compassion for victims of violent crimes - and the perpetrators of those crimes - threatens to destroy him. Whether Clevenger is entirely fictional, or a reflection of his creator's dark side (Ablow is a practicing forensic psychiatrist; the upshot is the same: he's a brilliant creation and this is a brilliant novel." -- Booklist (starred) on COMPULSION "The present is wounded by the past in an expertly judged psychological thriller ...a solid satisfying case." -- Kirkus Reviews on COMPULSION "Action nimbly shifts from gritty urban Boston to window-dressed Nantucket, and the people and politics are realistically portrayed, including the ballsy but deeply flawed protagonist...this one scores as a great psychological mind-bender." -- Publishers Weekly on COMPULSION, Dr. Frank Clevenger, forensic psychiatrist and (somewhat reluctant) crime-solver, is quickly becoming one of the genre's most intriguing protagonists...A strange and hypnotic thriller...fascinating., Action nimbly shifts from gritty urban Boston to window-dressed Nantucket, and the people and politics are realistically portrayed, including the ballsy but deeply flawed protagonist...this one scores as a great psychological mind-bender., COMPULSION is another really good book by Keith Ablow: compelling, graceful, and nearly impossible to put down., Keith Ablow is king of the psychological thriller.

Excellent, fair minded Seller! As described, swift turnaround, very well packed, helpful and equally swift communication. USPS lost book, Ebay claim resulted in a similarly swift refund, then it was delivered late, I was advised to keep it. Thanks very much !
