Synopsis:
The true identity of the psychotic ZODIAC killer has been known by the
Mandamus Seven (group of retired law enforcement officers, federal
agents, a minister, and a District Attorney) since March 15, 1971. This
true story is now being told for the very first time. Official
corruption and political intervention forced the investigation into a
top-secret, covert status, giving the insane ZODIAC killer immunity and a
license to kill. Of the over 2,500 suspects cleared by the local
authorities and the Department of Justice, this man is the only suspect
who had the uncontrollable and powerful motive—adultery! Mind and body
ravaged by years of severe alcoholism, his blood-lusting revenge turned
him into the most shocking and vicious killer in our 20th century.
Through his tauntings of the police, his codes, ciphers, and letters, he
was on a mission to redeem his shattered ego, to prove that he is
better, smarter, and more clever than all the judges and police put
together. With lordly arrogance and jealousy, and with the assistance of
the police, he continued his killing spree until he claimed a total of
37 victims. Lips sealed by secret oaths and federal obstructions of
justice, the investigation was further impeded by personal associations
with the suspect and his tenacious, intrepid wife, placing family
members in imminent danger. The evidence is overwhelming and given the
totality of the facts, it is the author’s opinion that there is no jury
in the world that would not find the suspect guilty of being the
criminal genius, ZODIAC.
Author’s Bio: Lyndon E. Lafferty is
an passionate outdoorsman who hiked to the top of Mt. Lassen three times
and once to the top of Mt. Fujiyama, Japan during the Korean War. He
also made two attempts each to climb Mt. Shasta and Mt. Whitney. Lyndon
holds a U.S. patent and two patents pending. He loves to write and is
currently working on two more novels. Lyndon has an excellent record
with the California Highway Patrol with many commendations devoting 27
years to law enforcement. He is best known for crushing the hood and top
of a patrol car as he and fellow officers used it as a platform to
rescue 38 injured and trapped passengers on a commercial bus in November
1976. Inheriting the Zodiac investigation has been both a blessing and a
curse. Bound by oaths of secrecy to a highly respected homicide
detective, his lips were sealed until the death of the detective in
1977.
