When the Bough Breaks // Shrunken Heads

NIGHT TERRORS

There is something spooky about this one, even for the dark side of L.A. A child molester's grisly suicide. A shockingly brutal double murder. A hidden network of perversion in high places. And a terrified seven-year-old girl who could put it all together...if child psychologist Alex Delaware could help her remember the horrors she'd witnessed.

But when he does, the police seem strangely uninterested. Obsessed with a case that endangers both his career and his life, Alex is caught up in a web of evil that stretches from the barrio to an elite island community...coming closer and closer to a forty-year-old secret that makes even murder look clean....
