Doctor
Gordon Vincent is now in his early 60s. Tonya Maxwell, who is his maid and
associate, cares for Vincent. She is aware of his dual personality, as doctor
and avenger.
The
Ghost is wrapped in a dark cloak, swirling around him, almost like it was
alive. There is a pair of oval white lights where his eyes should be, and a
large fedora is placed on top of his head, and a slick mask covers his face.
Alice
Chen begins as a detective, but takes over as police chief when Judd Fields is
killed. She has a son, and the boy mentions his dad once, but we never see him
or hear any more about him. Chen is The Ghost’s contact in the police
department.
Phyllis
Schultz is a reporter, and we expect big things from her, but she disappears from
the story line mysteriously (as if the author forgot her).
Charly
(sometimes spelled Charley) was once the love interest of Doctor Vincent, but
we know nothing about her.
Commissioner
Greene and Rachel Wells make one appearance and are gone, with not as much
attention as was given to Phyllis Schultz.
Some
of the villains were interesting. The Hangman, The Priest, and Big Danny Kane,
but none last long.
There
are six novelettes published in one book.
“The Ghost Returns”
(2015)
