Author William Elliott Hazelgrove appeared for a full-hour interview on Moody Radio's flagship program "In the Market with Janet Parshall" to discuss his new true-crime book, Evil on the Roof of the World. The nationally broadcast conversation explored the real-life murder at 20,000 feet that captivated the nation, the hidden investigation behind it, and the stunning revelations uncovered through Hazelgrove's research.
During the broadcast, Hazelgrove described the crime as unfolding "in one of the most unforgiving places on earth — a place where the truth can be as hard to reach as the summit itself." The interview ranged from the psychology of violence in extreme environments to the media firestorm that followed the case, offering listeners an inside look at one of the most shocking crimes ever committed in the Himalayas.
The appearance on Moody Radio, one of the largest Christian radio networks in the United States with broadcasts to millions of listeners across 200+ stations, represents a significant platform for the book's launch. Janet Parshall, known for her incisive interviews and national influence, rarely devotes a full hour to a single guest, making Hazelgrove's appearance particularly notable within publishing and media circles.
Evil on the Roof of the World examines the real events behind the high-altitude killing that received widespread coverage from major media outlets including The New York Times, CBS, NBC, Inside Edition, People Magazine, and international publications. The book reconstructs the chilling murder through interviews, records, and investigative research, revealing the truth behind the incident that shocked both the climbing community and the general public.
The interview marks a major milestone in the book's promotion and brings attention to the challenges of investigating crimes in extreme environments.

This national radio coverage demonstrates the continuing public interest in true crime narratives, particularly those involving unusual circumstances or settings. The extensive media attention the original case received, combined with Hazelgrove's research revelations, suggests the book may influence how similar investigations are conducted and reported in the future.
