The Zodiac Killer remains officially unidentified, making his string of crimes one of the most infamous cold cases in American history. Operating primarily in Northern California between 1968 and 1969, the killer came to symbolize a unique brand of public terror. The Zodiac operated with an almost supernatural ability to evade capture. So who is the Zodiac Killer? This week Eddie McNamara joins Nic in the Garage to discuss his new book that revives an old Zodiac theory. The book is titled Zodiactually: the real story of a fake serial killer. The book is a fantastic read and the Garage conversation about one of America most intriguing serial cases is equally fascinating.
