  We investigate a class of three parameter metrics that contain both the
$\gamma$-metric and Janis-Newman-Winicour (JNW) metric at special values of the
parameters. To see the effect of the scalar field we derive some properties of
this class of metrics such as curvature invariants, the effective potential,
and epicyclic frequencies. We also introduce the five and higher dimensional
forms of the class of metrics in the presence of a scalar field.
