Biography & Autobiography. History. True Crime. Nonfiction. HTML:<b><i>NEW YORK TIMES</i> BESTSELLER • The true, unsolved story of D. B. Cooper’s 1971 airplane hijacking, one of the greatest cold cases of the twentieth century, by&#160;an author&#160;featured in <i>D.B. Cooper: Where Are You?!,</i> now streaming on Netflix</b><br /> <br /> <b>“Here is writing and storytelling that is vivid and fresh—a delectable adventure.”—Gay Talese</b><br /> <i><br /> “I have a bomb here and I would like you to sit by me.”</i><br /> &#160;<br /> That was the note handed to flight attendant Florence Schaffner by a mild-mannered passenger now known as D. B. Cooper&#160;on a Northwest Orient flight in 1971.&#160;It was also&#160;the start of one of the most astonishing aviation whodunits in the history of American true crime: how one man extorted $200,000 from an airline before parachuting into the wilds of the Pacific Northwest, never to be seen again.<br /> The case of D. B. Cooper is a modern legend that has obsessed and cursed his pursuers for generations with everything from bankruptcy to suicidal despair. Now, with <i>Skyjack</i>, Geoffrey Gray obtains a first-ever look at the FBI’s confidential Cooper file, uncovering new leads in the infamous case.&#160;<br /> &#160;<br /> Starting with a crack tip from a private investigator, Gray plunges into the murky depths of the decades-old mystery to chase down new clues and explore secrets of the case’s most prominent suspects, including Ralph Himmelsbach, the most dogged of FBI agents, who watched with horror as a criminal became a counter-culture folk hero; Karl Fleming, a respected reporter whose career was destroyed by a D. B. Cooper scoop that was a scam; and Barbara Dayton, a transgender pilot who insisted she was Cooper herself. With explosive new information, <i>Skyjack</i> reopens one of the great cold cases of the twentieth century. Media Type: Audiobook.
