Last Master Outlaw

In 1971, a skyjacker with a briefcase bomb demanded a $200,000 ransom and a parachute. Then he vanished out the jet''s back door and became an instant legend. Now a determined citizen sleuth has assembled a forty-member cold case team, spearheaded by former FBI agents, to solve the mystery of D. B. Cooper. And after a five-year quest, they believe they have succeeded-with a fugitive at trail''s end. The team''s relentless investigation and final confrontation with the mystery man serve as the bookends in The Last Master Outlaw. The subject''s astonishing life story as a daredevil fills the remaining chapters, the bulk of which comes from the heartwarming, gut-wrenching accounts of six of his women-two former wives; his only sister; a befriended college coed; a "getaway gal" he met up with during two more FBI escapes, both again involving planes; and a Hollywood producer who was also his cocaine-trade partner.
