Mystery/Thriller -- 3 1/2 stars
Alex Delaware - Book 33
Psychologist Alex Delaware has made a career out of aiding his friend LA police lieutenant Milo Sturgis on his most baffling cases. This time, it's a body found in the restroom at a wedding where the families are not exactly friendly. Everyone claims not to know the victim, but then why is she at the reception? And who is she? ----- I've read quite a few Alex Delaware novels, (thankfully, a series that can be cherry picked--no need to read them in order). This one is typical Jonathan Kellerman--heavy on the clever and entertaining dialogue, light on narrative. Other than Delaware and Sturgis, whose enduring relationship I enjoyed, the characters teeter on the edge of unlikeable which made the story as a whole only okay.
