Resumen del Editor

The New York Times best-selling co-author of Gwendy's Button Box brings his signature thrilling prose to this story of small-town evil that combines the storytelling of Stephen King with the true-crime suspense of Michelle McNamara.

In the summer of 1988, the mutilated bodies of several missing girls begin to turn up in a small Maryland town. The grisly evidence leads police to the terrifying assumption that a serial killer is on the loose in the quiet suburb. But soon a rumour begins to spread that the evil stalking local teens is not entirely human. Law enforcement, as well as members of the FBI, are certain that the killer is a living, breathing madman - and he's playing games with them. For a once peaceful community trapped in the depths of paranoia and suspicion, it feels like a nightmare that will never end.

Recent college graduate Richard Chizmar returns to his hometown just as a curfew is enacted and a neighbourhood watch is formed. In the midst of preparing for his wedding and embarking on a writing career, he soon finds himself thrust into the real-life horror story. Inspired by the terrifying events, Richard writes a personal account of the serial killer's reign of terror, unaware that these events will continue to haunt him for years to come.

A clever, terrifying and heartrending work of metafiction, "Chasing the Boogeyman does what true crime so often cannot: it offers both chills and a satisfying conclusion" (Stephen King). Chizmar's "brilliant...absolutely fascinating, totally compelling and immediately poignant" (C.J. Tudor, New York Times best-selling author) writing is on full display in this truly unique audiobook that will haunt you long after listening.
