Roy Johansen wrote his first screenplay when he was still in college. It won an Edgar Award and the prestigious Focus Award, sponsored by directors Spielberg, Coppola, Lucas, and Scorsese. Johansen's first novel, The Answer Man, also won an Edgar Award. Now, in Beyond Belief, this talented author further hones his talent for suspense.
Somehow, a gigantic metal sculpture has been thrust through the air to kill Dr Nelson, the chairman of a university's parapsychology program. In desperation, the police call in Detective Joe Bailey, nicknamed the Spirit Basher. Joe soon learns that Nelson was studying someone with extraordinary telekinetic powers. But when Joe meets the subject - a shy, eight-year-old boy - he feels his objectivity begin to waver. As Joe focuses on solving the murder, a series of seemingly impossible occurrences will force him to investigate the darkest recesses of the paranormal and the occult.
Narrator Richard Ferrone's captures Joe's frustration as he searches for logical answers in an increasingly eerie case.
