Publisher's summary

A secret government unit is formed under the oversight of Adam Harrison, famed paranormal investigator. The six members he’s gathered know a little of the otherworldly - each has honed a psychic talent of their own.

Jackson Crow, part English, part Cheyenne, heads the group. Haunted by his experience with an ancestral ghost who saved his life as a child, and the recent murders of two previous teammates, Jackson can’t tell if Adam’s demoted him or given him an extraordinary opportunity. Despite his link to the realm of spirits, he’s well aware that the living commit the most heinous crimes, with spiritualist charlatans existing merely to fool and seduce the unwary.

To counterbalance Jackson’s careful skepticism, Adam Harrison has paired him with Angela Hawkins, a young woman who learned the painful lesson of loss at an early age. A police officer utilizing her paranormal intuition in Virginia, she already has her hands full. But Adam’s call to New Orleans is strong.

The case: In a historic mansion in New Orleans’ French Quarter, a senator’s wife falls to her death from a balcony. Most think she jumped, distraught over the loss of her young son. Some say she was pushed. And yet others believe she was beckoned by the ghostly spirits that inhabit the house - once the site of a serial killer’s grisly work. Whether supernatural or all too human, crimes of passion, greed, and desire will cast the pair into danger of losing their lives... and their immortal souls.

Not the best Heather Graham I've read

I have read other reviews that say that the other books in this series are better. I am not going to give up on this just yet but this book was so dry. It was very hard for me to get into it. I never got wrapped up and just wanted to finish it. The narrator isn't horrible. He isn't great but I didn't have a hard time listening to him. Hoping further books in this series are better.

Interesting plot, but Cummings wasn't a good fit

I liked the story and watching the plot unraveling, but Cummings really doesn't do Louisanan accent well, nor does he do most females justice. I recommend this book based on the plot and knowing Luke Daniels does the next one.

Great Story with a Twist

I enjoyed Phantom Evil. It wasn't so heavy in the fantasy realm as to be totally unbelievable. Good characters and good narration. Looking forward to the next book in the series.

Good story. Annoying narration.

This is my first Graham book, and I enjoyed the story. Fun, light read, cheesy romance tossed in but not distracting from the mystery. The narration is fine when no real creativity is necessary, but when required to do anything more than simply read aloud the narrator is just plain annoying. The female voices and a couple of the younger males do sound just like Mickey Mouse with a horrendous "southern" twist. The story is interesting enough to keep listening, but it was a strain. I was elated to find no other Graham books are narrated by Cummings.

Good author, good reader.....but

The premise of the story was excellent, and Cummings did a great job.

The sex took away from the story and the way it was portrayed missed the mark. It obviously was written for an audience who wanted sex described in a way that would make the sun and moon stop their journey in amazement. It was a distraction. Too soon, too long, too perfect a connection, and no consequences. *shrugs* This may simply mean I am the wrong audience for this book.

I'll avoid any other comments because it would give the plot away. Ms. Graham has talent, and it will grow even more.

First book in the series, I hope they get better

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I stuck with it just to see if it ever made any sense. It got all wrapped up in the end, but was a real mess of a story.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

A mix of science and supernatural that were in conflict with each other. Id have picked one. too many characters all intertwined might see creative but just made for a messy story.

Which character – as performed by Jeffrey Cummings – was your favorite?

NA

Could you see Phantom Evil being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

NO

Terrible Narration

I absolutely hate I wasted a credit on this book. The story was good, but the narration was terrible. It sounded as if he was reading the book. His accent for the characters were poor, as well.
Don’t waste your credits.
