Gr 4–6— Well-plotted with clever dialogue, the second installment in this highly absorbing series features Jax Opus, a young hypnotist, taking on some new and disturbing powers when he agrees to help an old, rich, and powerful man. Jax takes on the man's memories, which lead him down a dangerous path.
Wunderkind hypnotist Jackson Opus and his family are trying to lay low in the wake of Dr. Elias Mako's election-tampering campaign. Jax's burgeoning mesmeric gifts draw unwanted attention, especially after an elderly billionaire hires Jax to prolong his life using a dangerous hypnotism technique. Tween boys will enjoy this second engrossing mystery's relatable narrator, quirky secondary characters, and fast-paced plot.
