Thanks to @randomhouse for the finished copy of Unnatural History. This is the 38th book in the series from Jonathan Kellerman. "A photographer, Donny Klement, is found shot and killed in his own bed. Lt. Milo Sturgis gets the case and asks his longtime friend, Dr. Alex Delaware, to consult. Milo discovers a photo project that Donny had been working on involving several homeless men and women. As Milo and Alex dig into Donny's background they discover his reclusive billionaire father and several half siblings. Was it a family member? Did a homeless person take advantage of a naive young man? And now the people from the phot project are turning up dead..." Because Delaware is a psychologist, you always get a lot of motive and the psychological ramifications of a murder and a scene. Kellerman never veers into the overexplaining that many authors do. It's just enough input to add depth to the story. This is a procedural - Sturgis and Delaware follow leads until they find the bad guy. Kellerman adds a nice twist here near the end. The homeless play a big part in the plot and Kellerman uses that to make some commentary on the homeless situation in several California communities. This is the next book in a long series but can totally be read as a stand-alone. More great crime fiction from Kellerman. #unnaturalhistory #jonathankellerman #alexdelaware #ballantinebooks #randomhouse #policeprocedural #lacrimefiction #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #readinglife #bookphotography #bookcommunity #bookblogger #sodacityreads #suspensebook #bookhaul #literarycrimefiction #homelibrary #thrillerbooks #domesticthriller #crimefiction #thriller #characterdrivenbooks #mysterythriller #bookrecs #randomhousebooks #partner https://www.instagram.com/p/CoaX7l9Ac_L/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
