About this product

Product Information

"It's fire season, and the hills of Los Angeles are burning. When police and fire department personnel rush door to door in a frenzied evacuation effort, they discover the week-old corpse of an apparent suicide. But the gunshot victim is less gruesome than what they find in his lap: a photo album of seven brutally murdered young women - one per year, for seven years. And when the suicide victim is identified as a former suspect in one of the murders, the news turns Elvis Cole's world upside down." "Three years earlier Lionel Byrd was brought to trial for the murder of a female prostitute named Yvonne Bennett. A taped confession coerced by the police inspired a prominent defense attorney to take Byrd's case, and Elvis Cole was hired to investigate. It was Cole's eleventh-hour discovery of an exculpatory videotape that allowed Lionel Byrd to walk free. Elvis was hailed as a hero." "But the discovery of the death album in Byrd's lap now brands Elvis as an unwitting accomplice to murder. Captured in photographs that could only have been taken by the murderer, Yvonne Bennett was the fifth of the seven victims - two more young women were murdered after Lionel Byrd walked free. So Elvis can't help but wonder - did he, Elvis Cole, cost two more young women their lives?" "Shut out of the investigation by a special LAPD task force determined to close the case, Elvis Cole and Joe Pike desperately fight to uncover the truth about Lionel Byrd and his nightmare album of death - a truth hidden by lies, politics, and corruption in a world where nothing is what it seems to be."--BOOK JACKET.

Robert Crais delivers superb thrillers, again and again and again.
One of my favorite suspense novelists, Robert Crais' LA detectives, quirky Elvis Cole and stoic Joe Pike, consistently deliver the finest in contemporary sleuthing. I have been a fan ever since "Monkey's Raincoat," Crais' first novel. There is no more engaging, entertaining or compelling working mystery writer that I am aware of. Dan Brown's Robert Langdon books are similarly satisfying, but fall in a different genre, focusing on the historical, the cultural, and the conspiratorial rather than the contemporaneous. Chasing Darkness delivers thrills with aplomb. I first enjoyed this novel in 2008 when it was published. Now that I own an autographed copy, I will enjoy it even more the second time around.

I have not met a Robert Crais book I didn't like!
Elvis Cole and Joe Pike are, again, the good guys fighting evil. In their quest you can bet that someone at LAPD is gonna hate 'em. In this, #13 with them in it, things are no different. So, you might say they have to fight their battle on two fronts: against misguided good guys and bad guys. When it comes to crime novels there are no better writers than Robert Crais (not necessarily "the best", but certainly there are none "better").

Chasing Darkness - Chasing a Good Story
Chasing Darkness was an exciting story with twists and turns at the right moments with the main character, Elvis Cole(P.I.) haunted by the possibility that he may have been responsible for getting a murder charge dropped against a "guilty" client, investigates to find the truth which takes him through harrowing experiences with the police, angry people and dangerous suspects. It has the right balance of action and thought processes. It is suspenseful because the reader doesn't know anymore than the main character. If you like Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch stories, you'll enjoy this book.
