Publisher's Summary

A Chinese astronaut is found dead in a NASA training environment in Houston, Texas. No one can explain how he got there. Amid fears of a diplomatic catastrophe, the CIA dispatches Timothy 'Hangman' Blake to investigate a convicted kidnapper who works in the facility – someone Blake put away seven years ago.

Blake is deeply insane, afflicted by terrible urges he can barely control – but he's also brilliant. Zara, his beautiful and deadly CIA handler, suspects a secret Chinese spacecraft is surveilling the United States, but Blake can see something much more sinister is going on. Something connected to the kidnapping seven years ago, to the technologies being developed at NASA and to the serial killer known as the Texas Reaper.

Will Blake survive long enough to uncover the truth? And if he does, will anyone even believe him?

"The crimes are brilliantly twisted and surprising... Heath has woven some real magic into these darkly comedic thrillers." (Shane W. Smith, creator of Undad)

I will hang in here and wait for the next story

It was brilliant! Both the story and the performance. The story should be ( might be? could be?) dark and gloomy, but Jack's writing is poetic/beautiful and Timothy is funny even at the worst possible time. I was surprised that i was chuckling and was not sure i was getting the story right. It suck me in from the first volume " Hangman" and i listened through all 4 volumes in a short while. Very clever plots in all volumes. Warm feelings after reading. Highly recommended.

Another great book

Just as interesting and intriguing as the other books in the series. If you like books with a twist I would recommend. Great performance by the narrator.

Worth the wait for more Timothy Blake

Having loved the previous 3 books in this series, I was rapt when Headcase was available on Audible. This book could be listened to as a stand alone but if you have the option to read them in order, do that. All four books were great.
