The Answer Man

When a down-and-out lie detector operator accepts $50,000 to teach a defendant how to "beat the machine," he is drawn into a murderous web in which he must figure out who's lying and who's telling the truth -- without using his polygraph -- in order to stay alive.
"Fascinating... The characters are too well drawn to behave predictably."
The New York Times
"Johansen tries his hand at the thriller and comes up with aces."
Kirkus Reviews
Beyond Belief

Paranormal debunker Joe Bailey is thrust into his first murder case when a college professor appears to have been murdered by a telekinetic 10-year-old boy. But when Bailey becomes the target of possibly supernatural attacks, he may pay the ultimate price for his skepticism.
"Johansen polishes the story brilliantly to allow for the collision of nonstop tricky plot complications. Readers will have fun trying to keep up with the tale's rapid pace and Johansen's nimble sleight of hand."
