Can Modern DNA Science Crack this Cold Case? The 1978 murder of actor and American icon Bob Crane remains one of the most high-profile unsolved celebrity murders of all time. Thirty-eight years after his brutal murder in Scottsdale, Arizona, millions around the world still want answers. Was John Carpenter the killer? Or did police arrest an innocent man? For nearly 40 years, police remained convinced of Carpenter's guilt. Early DNA testing, decades ago, was unable to positively link Carpenter to the crime. The two friends lived on the edge, sharing a dark obsession--videotaping women during their sexual encounters. In an unprecedented investigation, reporter John Hook retests the original blood evidence using modern DNA science in a final search for answers. Scientists believe this is the last chance to test DNA from the crime scene-- the final close-up--in identifying Bob Crane's killer. Hook has exhausted all remaining avenues to unearth answers in this intriguing and haunting cold case. Will he close the book on the Crane murder once and for all? Who Killed Bob Crane? is Hook's first-hand account of a two-year investigation and search for the truth. It's seen though the eyes of the people who were there--witnesses, detectives, prosecutors, jurors, and family members. John Hook takes readers on an incredible reporter's journey for an inside look at the sensational physical evidence in a final attempt to learn the truth in Who Killed Bob Crane?Dimensions (Overall): 8.9 Inches (H) x 5.9 Inches (W) x .7 Inches (D)
