True crime fans and cynics alike won’t be able to put this riveting story down.” –Booklist, starred review

“This riveting true crime book is a thriller, a memoir, and a meditation on the unknown, with all the intensity of a big-screen drama and the soul of deeply personal reckonings. […] The tension is relentless, the writing cinematic, and the tone urgent. What truly sets this work apart is its grappling with the nature of evil. […] An intensely honest and visceral journey into darkness, intuition, and the pursuit of justice; a must-have.” -Library Journal, starred review

“An amazing story about the unique relationship between an FBI agent and a psychic who team up to solve crimes together. Stranger than fiction, but all true.

“Storytelling at its best. Agent Hilland and psychic medium John Edward make an unlikely crime-solving duo in this riveting account of one law enforcement officer’s undying determination to stop a serial killer.

“Put the coffee on, lock the doors and settle in, because it’s going to be a long night. Chasing Evil grabs you by the lapels from the first page, holding firm until the very end. For true crime fans, this is the Holy Grail. John Edward and Robert Hilland take readers with them, step by terrifying step, as they painstakingly chase down clues to solve some of the most notorious, bone-chilling crimes the U.S. has ever seen. What comes through most: the passion and caring of both men for the victims in their quest for justice.” -K.C. Baker, senior crime writer for PEOPLE Magazine and reporter on ID/Investigation Discovery’s true crime series, People Magazine Investigates

“Chasing Evil opens with the near-frantic hunt to rescue a missing five-year-old named Noah. It maintains its urgent tone to the final page, through a variety of cases for a real-life FBI officer, involving terrorists, mobsters, domestic abusers and the criminally insane. Chasing Evil is tough to put down and even tougher to forget.” -Peter Edwards, Toronto Star criminal justice reporter and bestselling author of A Gangster’s Life
