I don't usually read Non Fiction, but this book intrigued me. It did not disappoint! I am always up for a book on serial killers, and it was refreshing to read about them from an FBI standpoint...and throw in a psychic medium...fabulous. 5 stars!

A skeptic and a psychic join forces to solve cold cases. Sounds like the premise of a goofy sitcom, so you can imagine how delighted I was to find out this book! Utterly fascinating (and occasionally deeply unsettling). I loved reading about Hilland and Edward's relationship and the way they helped others come to, if not peace, then at least terms with the violence of the old cases that had never been solved. Highly recommend for fans of true crime!

Thank you to St. Martin’s Press and NetGalley for allowing me early access to this true crime book!

When I saw this was a true crime book involving the help of psychic John Edward, I was like sign me up. I loved the dynamic between he and the skeptical FBI agent, Bob Hilland.

I would love to also hear this on audiobook. It would be an amazing story to hear.

Regardless of what you believe about mediumship and psychic phenomena, Chasing Evil is a fascinating, harrowing, and thought-provoking read. The dynamic between skeptical FBI agent Bob Hilland and psychic medium John Edward is compelling as they forge an unexpected partnership to bring closure to cold cases. The blend of true crime and the supernatural kept me hooked, particularly as their efforts brought justice and healing in surprising ways. This book delves into the power of unlikely connections and challenges readers to keep an open mind.

Many thanks to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for providing me with an eARC of Chasing Evil- Shocking Crimes, Supernatural Forces, and an FBI Agent’s Search for Hope and Justice prior to its publication.

After watching a few Netflix true crime shows I couldn't resist this one, especially because of the paranormal. elements. The work of J Edward gives us goosebumps. The horror of the truth behind crimes and the details made this a nonstop read that blew up my mind during my weekend. Must be awesome as an audiobook as well. From crimes years back, to warnings that help the inspector to remain safe, 9/11, solve crimes even in international waters.
