A fascinating read for those interested in true crime, particularly The Black Dahlia and Zodiac cases. Though the Zodiac sections rely heavily on circumstantial and handwriting analysis evidence, it makes a strong case. To be fair, the author DOES state as much and hopes DNA evidence will be released & examined in future (perhaps if there is public pressure). The only negative to the book - long, boring passages detailing the handwriting comparisons; however, these are necessary to the case evidence. On the plus side - there are lots of detailed photographs, very helpful to the reader - you can see and surmise for yourselves.
