Can't put it down

The best thing I can say about this book is I have read it at least 5 times. Written by someone who worked at a newspaper in the area, it is such a griping recollection of the events around the San Francisco bay area from 1966 to 1978 that I go back and read this book a couple of times a year. I get chills every time I read this book.

If you have never heard of the (original) Zodiac killer this is a great book to introduce you to the "story". It is well written and easy to follow as opposed to Mr. Graysmith's Unabomber book.

Mr. Graysmith does put a little of his opinion into the book when giving evidence of who the killer might be. He tends to concentrate on his chosen suspect which might skew the reader's perceptions to his own.

If you are interested in the Zodiac Killer or if this book gets you interested there are many websites on the subject. I'd suggest http://www.zodiackiller.com/ as a starting point.
