Heartbreak Hotel (Alex Delaware)

Summary

Psychologist Alex Delaware and Detective Milo Sturgis investigate the murder of woman who led a long life full of dark secrets.

At nearly 100, Della Mars isn’t sleuth and child psychologist Alex Delaware’s typical patient. She’s sought him out for a reason, though, one that she refuses to reveal during their first session. Next time. Intrigued, Alex arrives at Della’s glamorous L.A. penthouse for their second appointment, only to find an EMT outside the door to the suite and his new patient dead inside. When the autopsy comes back with a shocking verdict, strangulation, Alex calls in detective Milo Sturgis to help solve the murder. But to understand her mysterious death, Alex and Milo must unravel the even more mysterious life of Della Mars.
