D. B. Cooper: What Really Happened

D. B. Cooper: What Really Happened is a powerfully suspenseful true story of D. B. Cooper's daring crime and life as a fugitive. Author Max Gunther chronicles in gripping detail the events leading up to the hijacking, the elaborate planning and execution of the crime, and the new life Cooper led with the woman who aided his escape. This astonishing account finally brings to light the entire story. In it we learn: Of the trivial overheard remark that gave Cooper the idea; Of the entire drama of the hijacking, as D. B. himself experienced it; How Cooper's plans almost failed as a result of a chocolate bar, an apple, and a raccoon; How close he came to being caught - once by his wife and once by a suspicious employer; What Cooper really looked like; How he lived after the hijacking - and what became of him. This extraordinary account is investigative reporting at its best.
