1 August Book Release I Can’t Wait To Read

In August there are a few books that I wouldn’t mind adding to my TBR, but there is only one book that I absolutely cannot wait to get my hands on.

I’ve had this book pre-ordered and will be dropping everything to dive in as soon as it arrives on my doorstep!

Note: This post features an Amazon affiliate link. While I greatly appreciate the support if you are going to order online, please try to purchase the book(s) from your local bookstore if you are able. <3

Let’s dive in!

Chasing Darkness With Me book cover

Chase Darkness with Me: How One True-Crime Writer Started Solving Murders by Billy Jensen

Expected publication date: August 13th 2019
Genre: True Crime

Synopsis: 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.

Thanks for reading!
What books are you looking forward to in August?

    So many people are talking about true crime stories lately. Admittedly, I like my dastardly deeds on the fictional side, but this is intriguing.

    I don’t think there is anything for August I want but October looks like it could be pretty expensive! There are a handful of political releases in non fiction, and a few big Game of Thrones books I want!
