Jonathan Kellerman- Billy Straight

Lisa, the estranged wife of TV superstar cop Cart Ramsey, is found murdered 

in a Los Angeles park. She'd divorced him for cruelty and the detectives on 

the case, Petra Connor and Stu Bishop, immediately elevate him to No 1 suspect.

 But a thorough investigation of the scene reveals that there was probably

 a witness to the killing. Reading the evidence on the ground Petra and Stu 

believe it is a homeless man, but in fact it is a homeless boy - Billy Straight.

 He knows he has vital evidence, but he is too scared of being returned to his

 former existence to come forward. As Billy battles with his conscience,

 Petra and Stu have plenty of other leads to follow and a dual narrative 

of stunning complexity and suspense develops until they eventually combine

 into a single crescendo of tension.

 Jonathan Kellerman has produced a thriller which is genuinely unputdownable.
