psychiatry. Among his specialties were fraud, extortion, and sexual
manipulation. Handler paid for his sins when he was brutally murdered
in his luxurious Pacific Palisades apartment. The police have no leads,
but they do have one possible witness: seven-year-old Melody Quinn.It's
psychologist Dr. Alex Delaware's job to try to unlock the terrible
secret buried in Melody's memory. But as the sinister shadows in the
girl's mind begin to take shape, Alex discovers that the mystery
touches a shocking incident in his own past. This connection
is only the beginning, a single link in a forty-year-old conspiracy.
And behind it lies an unspeakable evil that Alex Delaware must expose
before it claims another innocent victim: Melody Quinn.
