About Chase Darkness With Me: How One True-Crime Writer
Product Description A New York Times Bestseller. ***Pre-Order the Paperback Version, with a brand new chapter detailing how the Bear Brook/Allenstown 4 victims were identified by citizen detective work, updates on the investigations and 8 pages of exclusive photos.*** Have you ever wanted to solve a murder? Gather the clues the police overlooked? Put together the pieces? Identify the suspect? Journalist Billy Jensen spent fifteen years investigating unsolved murders, fighting for the families of victims. Every story he wrote had one thing in common―they didn't have an ending. The killer was still out there. But after the sudden death of a friend, crime writer and author of I'll Be Gone in the Dark, Michelle McNamara, Billy became fed up. Following a dark night, he came up with a plan. A plan to investigate past the point when the cops had given up. A plan to solve the murders himself. You'll ride shotgun as Billy identifies the Halloween Mask Murderer, finds a missing girl in the California Redwoods, and investigates the only other murder in New York City on 9/11. You'll hear intimate details of the hunts for two of the most terrifying serial killers in history: his friend Michelle McNamara's pursuit of the Golden State Killer and his own quest to find the murderer of the Allenstown Four. And Billy gives you the tools―and the rules―to help solve murders yourself. Gripping, complex, unforgettable, Chase Darkness with Me is an examination of the evil forces that walk among us, illustrating a novel way to catch those killers, and a true-crime narrative unlike any you've read before. Review "An intense, fascinating read for true-crime lovers and newbies!" -- Actor, comedian and New York Times bestselling author Patton Oswalt "A breakthrough crime narrative." -- John Douglas, former chief of FBI's lnvestigative Support Unit and New York Times #1 Bestselling Author of Mindhunter: Inside the FBI's Elite Serial Crime Unit "Inspire a new generation of true crime viewers and readers to become true crime's superheroes."-- Bustle "In this engrossing memoir, journalist Jensen takes the reader on his quest to hunt down killers using internet sleuthing and crowdsourcing...For fans of true crime, this is a fascinating story." -- Publisher's Weekly "Part memoir, part how-to guide, Chase Darkness With Me includes rules for responsible citizen detective work...Jensen has poured nearly all of his free time and energy over the past three years into crowd-sourcing criminal investigations...Even when he accumulated $20,000 in debt from promoting his posts, he's never given up on a case." -- Rolling Stone About the Author Billy Jensen is a true-crime journalist focused squarely on unsolved murders and missing persons. But after seventeen years of writing hundreds of stories with no endings, he was fed up--and decided to try to solve the murders and find the missing himself. It worked. Combining the shoe-leather investigative tenacity and skills he learned reporting crime with radical techniques honed from his day job as a digital executive, Jensen has solved or helped solve ten homicides and helped locate missing persons. Law enforcement agencies now reach out to Jensen to help in cases that have them stumped, using him as a "consulting detective." He was friends with Michelle McNamara and, after her sudden passing, helped finish her #1 New York Times bestselling book, I'll BeGone in the Dark , about the hunt for the Golden State Killer. He was a senior producer and investigator on the Warner Bros. show Crime WatchDaily and cohosts with Paul Holes the podcast The Murder Squad .
