What could be so interesting about a murderer who hasn't been caught, and why would someone write a book about it? I can definitely answer that for you. The book "Zodiac" by Robert Graysmith is about the unsolved cases that the Zodiac Killer has committed. The reason this book is so interesting and definitely worth a read, is because, not only has the killer still not been identified, but there's so many twists, you would hardly believe it's all true. The Zodiac Killer taunts and tortures the police with notes saying who he may kill next, who he's already killed, or just creepy nonsense that will send shivers down your spine. No evidence has ever been left behind to make further connections, besides the hand writing in the notes, but even those have police confused. "Police announced that 'a state expert has compared our main suspect's handwriting and ruled it not the same as the Zodiac's. But that does not mean that our local man did not kill the girl. It merely means that the Riverside man is not the Zodiac,' (Graysmith174)." There are so many frustrating things about the Zodiac cases, and it makes you just want to keep reading to see what happens. But I can assure you, and I hate to spoil this, but the Zodiac, to this day, has not been identified. Whoever he is, he makes for a great book, that's for sure.
