'An utterly unique masterwork' NAOMI KLEIN
'Brilliantly researched... Impossible to forget' JEFF GUINN
In this riveting true crime thriller, bestselling author and journalist Johann Hari hunts the serial killers stalking the sinister underworld of Las Vegas.
Hidden in the tunnels beneath the Las Vegas Strip is a secret city - one that the homeless have built, and the police are afraid to enter. When Johann Hari first ventured underground in 2011, he discovered something strange: people kept disappearing, or turning up dead.
Suspicions arose that a serial killer was preying on the homeless population living in the tunnels. But when a suspect was jailed and the murders continued, a darker truth started to emerge. Las Vegas appeared to have become a breeding ground for serial killers targeting some of the city's most vulnerable people, and nobody knew why.
That mystery would become a fifteen-year obsession for Hari. Gaining unprecedented access to police files, prosecution and defence lawyers, and the families of the missing, his search for answers draws him into a chain of bizarre and tragic events. The kidnapping of a thirteen-year-old girl. The election of a mayor who befriended one of the worst murderers in American history. The rise of a cult-like Korean church predicting the end of the world in a nuclear holocaust. And, in a chilling final confrontation, he comes face to face with the killers themselves.
An astonishing page-turner, We Die in the Dark reveals a hidden side of America where the vulnerable can disappear without trace and killers can move unseen - and drags it blinking into the light.

Recenzii
The best books in the true crime genre go far beyond descriptions of horrific crimes to probe the cultural inequities which too often doom the most helpless among us. We Die in the Dark, Johann Hari's brilliantly researched and written account of a killing spree targeting the homeless in Las Vegas, is, quite simply, the best of the best. It is stunning to read, and, afterward, impossible to forget
A staggering work of non fiction - a suspenseful thriller, a heartbreaking novel, a scathing expose on the cruel underworld of America. One of the most powerful books I have ever read
Hari dives deep into one of the most troubling environments imaginable. Las Vegas emerges as the birthplace of all that is darkest in human experience - almost as a serial killer in its own right. He reminds as - as ever - that only love counts. It's a harrowing read, unforgettably haunting and yet precise. An extraordinary feat of journalism and connection
We Die in the Dark is many stories in one: tragedy, history, dystopia, crime, mystery, love. Curious, kind, and compassionate to all he encounters, Hari is a superb guide through this complicated terrain. We Die in the Dark might just be his best work
A gripping and harrowing story that is at once about an unforgettable cast of characters and about a culture unraveling at warp speed. Hari is dogged detective, digging for years to crack the case, and a deep empath, bringing victim and perpetrator alive on the page. This is an utterly unique masterwork -- I disappeared into it completely, unable to put it down.
