About This Item
New York, NY: St. Martin's Press, 2003. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Jonathan Bennett (Book design). Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. [12], 323, [3] pages. Signed by author. DJ has slight wear and soiling. Keith Russell Ablow (born November 23, 1961) is an American psychiatrist, author and television personality. He graduated from Brown University in 1983, magna cum laude, with a Bachelor of Science degree in neurosciences. He received his Doctor of Medicine degree from Johns Hopkins Medical School in 1987, and completed his psychiatry residency at the Tufts-New England Medical Center. While a medical student, he worked as a reporter for Newsweek and a freelancer for the Washington Post and Baltimore Sun and USA Today. Ablow is the author of six psychological fiction thrillers featuring Frank Clevenger, a forensic psychiatrist dedicated to a search for truth, no matter where it leads. Derived from a Kirkus review: Return of heroic alcoholic Frank Clevenger, forensic psychiatrist. Ablow, himself a forensic psychologist, now takes a page from Hannibal Lecter: Clevenger this time out faces his mirror image, a demonically brilliant psychiatrist turned serial killer. In the stunning opening scene, Dr. Jonah Wrens drives his BMW along Route 90 outside Rome, New York, playing Mahler's serene Tenth Symphony, thinking of Scott Fitzgerald's The Crack-Up, and searching for a highway victim to seduce into soul-warmth before he razors open the victim's carotids and orgasms while hugging the victim as his or her life ebbs away. Jonah leaves 14 bodies razored across 14 states before the FBI calls in Clevenger for analysis of the killer's motives and way of working. Jonah is a traveling psychiatrist for kids severely impaired by mental illness and spends about six weeks at each hospital he attends.
