Publisher's Synopsis
D.B. Cooper hijacked a flight in 1971, claimed his ransom and parachuted down to the forests of Washington State, never to be seen again. Reid uses this true story as a starting point, following this Vietnam vet with a failed marriage who decides the time has come to make a radical change in his life. An epic FBI manhunt and brutal social portrait emerge as we follow D.B. to Mexico and back. Reid writes smart and direct prose. Reid has written something much more engaging than the mere suspense novel it might have been.' - NY Times'
