A serial killer is loose in Central Texas. The Hangman steals victims' DNA, disappearing without a trace. When Gerald Bryce, the Empathic Detective, investigates he uncovers a dark conspiracy. Someone is using old alchemy recipes, intent on creating artificial life and harnessing its clairvoyant powers.
Can Bryce stop the Hangman before people he loves get hurt? And can he stop the conspiracy before everyone in the city falls under a dangerous psychic spell? A defense contractor's invention, the ghostsuit, may hold the key both as a clue to the murders and by giving him an electronic set of spectral powers to battle the Hangman.
Ghostsuit An Empathic Detective Novel The Empathic Detective Book 2 eBook Jaxon Reed
Dr. Ahmed turned on a recorder for his light experiment. Despite the lab’s security cameras that would record it, he did not trust them to do it right and felt he needed to record it himself. He was supposed to have a grad student working with him, but the student had arrived with a gun in a shoulder holster, which was against university rules, and Ahmed sent him home as punishment. But as he worked on his experiment, one of the security cameras startled him when it fell off the wall. Then the second one did the same! A rope appeared in front of him and looped itself over Ahmed’s neck, raising him up until his neck snapped.Joaquin Alexander, a research scientist, was skinny-dipping with friends late at night. He walked to the trees to relieve himself, when he saw a rope approaching. He pulled his gun, which he had with him, and suddenly his gun arm was sliced off. A rope drifted toward him and looped around his neck.
Detectives Gerald Bryce, Parker, and Jenkins were assigned the cases. Because they had the recording of Dr. Ahmed’s murder, they knew they were looking for someone in an invisibility suit. But because of the high level security around such an invention, the investigation was meeting with resistance. They knew the Hangman was going after highly intelligent subjects to steal their DNA.
Bryce went to visit his mother at the nursing home. She had just had her nightly meds and was drifting off, but she asked about his case. As her eyes closed, she told him it sounded like someone was practicing alchemy – attempting to create artificial life! At the research library, he explored this and found a recorded lecture that described making a ‘homunculus’ and obtaining the necessary ingredients from a hanged man! This led to a whole new direction in the detectives’ investigation! Was it enough to help them identify the killer and track him down??
This was a great book, set in the future in such a way that it all seemed very real and natural. The characters were well defined and inspired trust and confidence in the reader. I really enjoyed the way the different police groups worked together to track this killer. I highly recommend the book. It was well written, fast paced, and interesting for the reader. I definitely intend to stick with this author for future books such as this one!

Ghostsuit An Empathic Detective Novel The Empathic Detective Book 2 eBook Jaxon Reed Reviews
The second book in this series is even better than the first. Gerald Bryce is the Empathic Detective. I love the science of the future. Someone is trying to create artificial life and use it for evil. The Ghost suit helps Bryce fight against the evil conspiracy. If you enjoy science fiction, you will enjoy the future with the Empathic Detective!
Thid has been one of the most intriguing paranormal mystery/ detective type reads I've enjoyed in some time. I'm hooked on Jerry Bryce from book 1 and must know what the suspenseful buildup at the end of each book leads up to. Great twists and turns, a gripping plot and real to life characters. Well done.
Cleverly done and a brilliant follow-up to an intriguing series. I was delighted this one got the nod from Scout. It scares me to think of what people can do with stolen DNA and a secret facility.

After reading the first book in the series, I wanted to continue on to see what more exciting adventures Detective Bryce would have to solve. Although this is a story that can be read by itself, it is is a continuation in the series. The author has done a great job summarizing events in the first book, while not giving the whole story away. If you haven't read that you, you'll want to go back and get the whole story.
This book again is based off of historical documents surrounding supposedly magical events. I enjoyed learning about the homunculi, little men, who had great powers. The author has done a good job taking this bit of history and weaving it into an entertaining story. I enjoyed this even more than the first book.
This is the second in the Empathetic Detective series and a thoroughly enjoyable story. Detective Gerald Bryce and friends continue from the first book, chasing felons in a 21st century Texas where cars fly and restaurants float in the skies. They are uncomplicated cops who work diligently but without great drama. Author Jaxon Reed seems to have matured a bit - I found the writing in this one to be improved somewhat over the first book, with the characters showing a bit more depth and the story flowing along better. The action is fast and the storyline never loses focus.
A bizarre murderer is loose in central Texas and he is invisible.He kills gifted men by hanging them and steals their sperm. Say what? Can empathetic detective Gerald Bryce and friends figure this out? You bet - read the story to learn how!
Disclosure I received this copy free via the Scout program. I am under no obligation to the author for a positive review. Or anything else.
Who needs the seeds of a Hanged Man, and Why from ten? Before the Emphatic Detective, Jerry Bryce, and the growing team he's part of can even begin to ponder who may be responsible, they have to recognize these questions.
A serial killer is rapidly adding to his(?) growing list of victims who are all above average IQ Young Men who have their Seman extracted shortly after they are hung. As this now, FBI Lead Team, gathers Intel, they learn that the ancient practice of Alchemy involved much than the "routine-Hum-Drum" efforts to turn Lead into Gold. In fact, we learn the "True purpose of Alchemy" was to create Artificial Life...life that would have Special Gifts. Going any further along this path would begin to reveal too much of the Plot Line.
I had read and reviewed the first book in this series, "The Emphatic Detective" and had said, "I'd welcome the opportunity to be an Advance Reader for that Book". I had given a specific reason, or rather a question I needed answered. I'm very pleased to find that issue addressed at the very end, and is the lead-in to the very next book in this series.
