A twisted and sexually charged thriller of extraordinary originality and page-turning suspense, 'The Girls He Adored' moves furiously from the inner recesses of the psyche to its startling climax. Jonathan Nasaw brilliantly portrays two equally intense characters - a deviant killer and the expert who can unlock his darkest secrets - and introduces one of the most likeable sleuths in recent fiction.
Max admits to killing the young woman whose still-warm, disembowelled body was found beside him - but he claims to be suffering from DID, a multiple-personality disorder and common alibi for murderers.
Strawberry-blonde psychiatrist Irene Cogan is brought in to assess his claims and is astonished to find Max has many more alters - or alternative personalities - than any DID sufferer she has previously encountered. But what Irene doesn't know is that one of them is a suspected serial killer the FBI know as Casey - a man responsible for the disappearance, and almost certain death, of several women.
Women with just one thing in common - strawberry-blonde hair.
