Competitive, cocky Mitchell Adams is a Ph.D. social worker in St. Louis who has it all-intelligence, good looks, a thriving private practice and a beautiful girlfriend-until his highly ordered world is suddenly turned inside out by her brutal murder. All evidence points to Mitch himself until he starts receiving phone calls from someone claiming to be her killer...and one of his clients. The caller carries a past grudge and is hell bent on framing Mitch-and on killing one of his other clients if Mitch goes to the police. Faced with a spectrum of colorful, challenging clients as potential suspects, Mitch runs the killer's twisted gauntlet alone in a race against time to catch the killer before the police arrest him for the murder. His odyssey returns him to his days as a fledgling therapist and forces him to confront his own secrets. Ultimately, he must choose between learning the truth about the woman of his dreams and keeping a memory alive.

A licensed psychiatric and medical social worker, Scott L. Miller earned his Master's in Social Work at St. Louis University in 1979 and has worked with adults, children and the elderly in state and private hospitals in St. Louis city and county ever since. Working at the old Malcolm Bliss and St. Louis State Hospitals provided Steve L. Miller with his first taste of the street life partially captured in his current novel. Long fascinated by the wonders of the human brain and an avid reader of psychological suspense novels, he quit writing exceptionally bad poetry, studied fiction writing under the late John Gardner and more recently at Washington University, and began writing twenty-odd versions of the first novel in his series, The Interrogation Chair, in lieu of sleeping at night. He currently is working on his third Mitchell Adams novel from his home in Chesterfield where he lives with his wife Beta and their barn of beagles and cats. He finds time for sleep now, unless the animals hog the bed. scottlmiller.com
