Need a book- can anyone suggest?

[tilly_felds]

Hello all. A good friend of mine recently qualified as a psycologist and I'd like to buy him a gift. He is a BIG fan of crime novels, favouring Patricia Cornwell but reading anything, so I wondered if anyone knew of any crime novels starring a psycologist/psychiatrist? Preferably not a CRIMINAL psycologist consultant- I'm looking for a professional that gets embroiled in the crime through no fault of their own. Anyone know of anything like this? I know it would be an unsual way to welcome him to his new profession but I know he'd actually like it. lol
Thanks in advance!

Going to take that as a no then! lol
Oh well. Nevermind. I think perhaps a nice expensive pen instead- he'd like that just as much.
Thanks anyway to all who viewed this thread even if you were unable to suggest.

Well, it probably is quite a specific request! :)

Yes I thought it was a long shot but just wondered if anyone here had on the oof chance had come across anything like it! It's no big deal- just thought it would have been unusual. But I know of a lovely (expensive but very hardwearing- just that sort he'll need when writing up all his patient notes!) pen he'd love so I'll get that and present it to him at drinks after his 1st day!

Val McDermid is the closest I can think of.
