“[Johansen]...keeps the pages turning.”
--Los Angeles Times


Product Description

A killer crosses over…

Ace magician turned ace police detective Joe Bailey, a.k.a. the Spirit Basher, needs all his expertise when he’s teamed up with psychic investigator Monica Gaines to crack a string of serial murders--each involving strange voices and stranger circumstances. Monica senses supernatural forces at work, but whoever--or whatever--is doing the killing, the victims are real. When eerie happenings hit closer to home--to Joe’s daughter, Nikki--and then Monica herself is the victim of a grisly, near-fatal attack, Joe is more determined than ever to unmask the truth behind the phenomena. As he searches for answers to inexplicable questions, he discovers that politics and the paranormal make deadly bedfellows, that his escape-artist skills still come in handy--and that even a psychic can know too much.

2.0 out of 5 stars disappointing, Sep 18 2003
By David L Zumchak (Rochester, NY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Like the previous reviewer, I read this in one sitting. That's only because it's a quick read, not because it is particularly compelling.

Once the mystery is solved, you realize everyone except maybe the Illuminati was involved in one way or another. Whatever. Once the cast of characters got that complicated, I lost interest.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very exciting police procedural, Jul 2 2003
By Harriet Klausner - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
A serial killer in Atlanta has murdered six high profile individuals. The athlete, attorney, college president, newspaper columnist, public relations firm owner, and former deputy mayor all complained of hearing voices that no one else heard. After they died, the police saw the same symbol marked on their chests. The police don't have a clue as to the identity of the killer so when psychic Monica Gaines offers her services to the police department, City Councilman Edward Tallman forces them to use her.

Atlanta police detective Joe Bailey works in the bunco squad and is well known for debunking paranormal cons. He is assigned to work with homicide so he can make sure that the psychic isn't pulling any con. He doesn't believe in the paranormal. When Monica's clothing spontaneously combusts and she has the serial killer's mark on her Joe is still looking for a rational explanation. When Joe hears the voice of his dead wife and lifts her prints in his home, his belief system get rattled. Still he is determined to find out who is doing these things and how it is being done.

DEADLY VISIONS is a very exciting police procedural with just the right touch of romance which is not at all surprising since the author's mother is the New York Times best-selling author Iris Johansen. The protagonist is a single father nurturing his eleven-year-old daughter and that immediately endears him to the audience. Fans hope that the protagonist will give his former lover a chance at beginning a new relationship. The who-done-it is cleverly set up so that readers will finish the book in one sitting to see who is playing head games with Joe.
