Publisher's summary

To solve an eerie murder, one detective must break a cardinal rule: Never let the case get personal....

Alex Penfield's gunshot wounds have healed, but the shock remains raw. Working the beat could be just what the detective needs to clear his head. But when a corpse washes up on the Chesapeake Bay, Alex's first case back could send him spiraling....

As Penfield and his partner examine the dead man's fortress of a house, an army of surveillance cameras takes the mystery to another level. When the detective sees gruesome visions that the cameras fail to capture, he begins to wonder if his past has caught up with him. To solve the murder, Penfield makes a call on a psychic who may or may not be out to kill him....

His desperate attempt to catch a killer may solve the case, but will he lose his sanity in the process?

Ruckman Road is the start of a new paranormal mystery series featuring Detective Alex Penfield. If you like supernatural whodunnits, gripping action, and heroes with a troubled past, then you'll love Robert W. Stephens' twisted tale.

I was up all night.

This mystery kept me up well into the night!! So good. Well written. Well told. Creepy characters. Creepy surroundings. Creepy dreams. Violence.
I am a mystery fan, but not a paranormal fan. I have to say that is the only issue I have with this book. I feel the ending was not satisfactory. Not logical enough for me.
I was gifted an Audible version of this book from the author through Story Origin. The narrator was perfect for this mystery. He brought out the mystery, the creepiness, the attitude of the story. I really enjoyed listening to his voice for those hours.

Must-read for paranormal mystery fans!

What a ride! Ruckman Road, by Robert W. Stephens, is a fast-paced paranormal mystery thriller. Detective Alex Penfield and his partner Maria Torres are asked to investigate a possible murder in an upper-class neighborhood. They soon discover there is no body. Things get weirder when they see that the victim's house is full of security cameras and almost no furniture.

I loved the pacing and the paranormal mystery in this book. Hang on to your hat; this is one wild ride! This is everything that a paranormal mystery should be. It leaves you questioning everything. Is it real? Is it fake? It is impossible to describe the story further without spoilers. This one is worthy of Mulder and Scully!

The narrator, James Fouhey, is perfect for this book. I can't imagine anyone else reading this book.

If you are a paranormal mystery fan, this is a must-read!

Paranormal Police Procedural

Stephens gives us a pair of "wounded" partners and puts them into a unsolvable case. This first book in the series brings us a mysterious mystic who saves a boy, who becomes a Detective, and our protagonist. I highly recommend following this entire series for spot-on police work with a paranormal twist.

Very unusual Story

I am not sure what to write for this review. It starts out as a usual detective police protocol type story. Main Characters are a Detective and his partner investigating a missing person. The story goes on through the book on this, then some Spiritual type things start happening and now everyone is second guessing who cause these things to happen. Quite a odd twist to this story.
