Lindsay is called next to the most bizarre crime scene she's ever witnessed: two bodiless heads elaborately displayed in the garden of a world-famous actor. Another head is unearthed in the garden, and Lindsay realises that the ground could hide hundreds of victims.
A reporter launches a series of malicious articles about the cases and Lindsay's personal life is laid bare. But this time she has no one to turn to - especially not Joe. 416 pages

À l'automne, la plante formant le virevoltant atteint sa taille maximale (entre 30 cm et quelques mètres) et se dessèche. Elle casse alors au niveau de la racine et peut se mettre à rouler. Le mécanisme est utile à la reproduction : en roulant, certaines espèces répandent environ 250 000 graines de semence. Cette boule errante est typique des paysages arides, et bien connue dans les westerns. (Wikipedia)

Le 2 février est le jour de la marmotte. Pourtant, il y a maintenant 4 marmottes en Amérique du Nord : Phil en Pennsylvanie, Willie en Ontario, Sam en Nouvelle-Écosse et, depuis 2010, Fred, de Val d'Espoir au Québec.
Au Canada, la marmotte ontarienne Wiarton Willie est d'accord avec Phil. Mais la néo-écossaise Shubenacadie Sam a prédit un printemps hâtif, ne voyant pas son ombre, tout comme sa collègue de Val-d'Espoir, en Gaspésie, Fred.
.Peu après 7 h samedi matin, à Val-d'Espoir en Gaspésie, Fred, la marmotte officielle du Québec a confirmé ce que tous redoutaient : l'hiver durera encore six semaines!
Au Canada, la marmotte Shubenacadie Sam, en Nouvelle-Écosse, a différé d'opinion. Elle a prédit un printemps hâtif, ne voyant pas son ombre.

The #1 New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Kellerman’s “psychology skills and dark imagination are a potent literary mix” (Los Angeles Times), and this intensely thrilling blend has never been so powerful as in the acclaimed author’s new novel of murder and madness among the beautiful dreamers, seductive predators, and doomed innocents adrift in the glare of Southern California’s eternal sunshine.
A series of horrifying events occur in quick succession in the same upscale L.A. neighborhood. A backyard renovation unearths an infant’s body, buried sixty years ago. And soon thereafter in a nearby park, another disturbingly bizarre discovery is made not far from the body of a young woman shot in the head. Helping LAPD homicide detective Milo Sturgis to link these eerie incidents is brilliant psychologist Alex Delaware. But even the good doctor’s vast experience with matters both clinical and criminal might not be enough to cut down to the bone of this chilling case—and draw out the disturbing truth.
Backtracking six decades into the past stirs up tales of a beautiful nurse with a mystery lover, a handsome, wealthy doctor who seems too good to be true, and a hospital with a notorious reputation—all of them long gone, along with any records of a newborn, and destined for anonymity. But the specter of fame rears its head when the case unexpectedly twists in the direction of the highest echelons of celebrity privilege. Entering this sheltered world, Alex little imagines the macabre layer just below the surface—a decadent quagmire of unholy rituals and grisly sacrifice.
Before their work is done, Alex and Milo, “the most original whodunit duo since Watson and Holmes” (Forbes), must confront a fanatically deranged mind of such monstrous cunning that even the most depraved madman would shudder. (719 pages) Excellent.
