"From Lis Wiehl, New York Times bestselling author and "storyteller extraordinaire" (Steve Berry), with New York Times bestselling crime writer Lisa Pulitzer, the definitive, gripping account of the longest pursuit in FBI history: the quest to find and capture the domestic terrorist Ted Kaczynski."-- April 3, 1996. A team of FBI agents closed in on an isolated cabin in remote Montana. The cabin's lone inhabitant was a former mathematics prodigy and professor who had abandoned society decades earlier. Few people knew his name, Theodore Kaczynski, but everyone knew the mayhem and death associated with his nickname: the Unabomber. , It was the end of the longest and most expensive investigation in FBI history: for two decades Kaczynski had masterminded a campaign of random terror through bombs sent in untraceable packages, his identity a maddening mystery. Wiehl reconstructs the tension-filled hunt to identify and capture the mysterious killer. -- adapted from jacket
