Book Summary
How do you catch a killer no one believes in?
They call Joe Bailey the Spirit Basher.
Formerly a professional magician, he’s become an ace
police detective in Atlanta, debunking phony psychics and
spiritualists who prey on the gullible. And he’s just
caught his first sensational murder case.
The
victim is the head of a university parapsychology program,
impaled in his own home by a massive sculpture no one
could possibly have lifted. The prime suspect: an eight-
year-old boy with violent telekinetic activity that erupts
in his dreams.
Could the boy possibly be the
murderer? Joe doesn’t think so. And he’s determined to
prove it.
But first he must separate reality from
illusion. To catch this killer, he can’t even trust his
own senses. Because the truth is far more terrifying than
anyone imagines. And if he doesn’t get someone to believe
it soon, Joe and his child will be next....
