Synopsis

On November 24, 1971, a man using the name Dan Cooper boarded a short Northwest Orient flight from Portland to Seattle, claimed he had a bomb, demanded $200,000 and four parachutes, and vanished after jumping into the night from the rear stairs of a Boeing 727.

More than fifty years later, the case still lives in American memory under the wrong name: D.B. Cooper.

This book reconstructs the hijacking, the investigation, the strongest suspect lanes, the Tena Bar money discovery, and the later forensic re-examinations without pretending the evidence does more than it does. Instead of recycling outlaw folklore, it shows how a brief domestic flight became one of the most durable unsolved cases in FBI history and why the gap between hard fact and public myth matters so much.
