One of psychologist Alan Gregory's former couples-therapy patients return to see him solo, when she suspects that her unfaithful husband may be a serial killer. Patient Gibbs Storey blurs the ethical boundaries between patient and therapist when she seeks protection and legal aide from Alan and his detective friend Sam Purdy.

I did not enjoy this story as much as the previous in the series, mostly because I did not find the character of Gibbs sympathetic or interesting in any way. The story is told in chapters narrated by Alan or Sam and some developments do occur in their personal lives, but ultimately Blinded is just not as suspenseful as the other Alan Gregory novels. Loyal fans of the series will read it, but those new to Stephen White's books should start elsewhere.
