About this listen

Best-selling author, cohost of the hit podcast The Murder Squad, and true-crime investigative journalist Billy Jensen goes to Columbus, Ohio, where he examines the unsolved cases of 18 dead and missing women whom he suspects were the victims of serial killers on the loose and operating under cover of the opioid epidemic in America's heartland.

In Chase Darkness with Me, listeners learned Billy Jensen's journalist origin story, his struggles, his call to adventure, and his first successes in solving murders.

In Killers Amidst Killers, listeners will ride shotgun with Jensen as he takes on serial killers who are walking among us and planning their next moves in real time. The facts are not in old police reports and faded photos. They unfold before our ears.

Our story begins in 2017, when two young women, best friends Danielle and Lindsey, go missing within weeks of each other, and their bodies are found soon thereafter.

As Jensen investigates Danielle and Lindsey's cases, he comes across other missing and murdered women, and before long, he uncovers 18 of them. All unsolved. And no one was talking about it.

These are not women who were raised in the street. They got hooked on pills. The pills were taken away. They get hooked on heroin. And when the money was gone, they had to sell themselves. It all happens very quick.

Through his investigations and the help of experts, Jensen identifies serial killers in Cleveland and Columbus. Why there? Because it's easy. Sharks go where the swimmers are. Serial killers go where the easy prey are–ground zero of the opioid epidemic. The heart of America.

Jensen hunts these predators to bring peace to the victims' suffering families while putting a spotlight on a system that is leaving hundreds of thousands of bodies in its wake.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Solid book, has some cringe factor

The premise of the book is solid and it does a good job of taking you through the journey of addiction and what's happening to these women.

I did feel myself cringing more than once while listening though due to public accusations made against the author. It makes it difficult to see him as a victim's advocate.

It's still a worthy read/listen if you can get past the cringe factor.

Compelling, A Must Listen

I loved that right from the start, you learn about the victims as people with dreams, goals and hopes and you care about them. To hear their spiral into addiction is hard to hear but it could be anyone we know, it could be any one of us. The author has done an excellent job at unravelling the complexity of the opioid epidemic, laying responsibility at the feet who profit from the pain of vulnerable people and highlighting the frustrating inaction of those who should be enforcing that accountability. Give these women the dignity in death that they didn't get in life. Well done Billy.
