SECRET HISTORY OF D.B. COOPER #1

(W/A) Brian Churilla

The most infamous airline hijacker of all time, D.B. Cooper remains on the FBI's most-wanted list almost 40 years after the crime. For the first time, the secret history of the man and the hijacking will be revealed. During the height of the Cold War, a fringe group within the C.I.A. wages a crusade on the deadliest battlefield of all: the mind. Aided by powerful psychotropic compounds, Cooper assists in a campaign of psychic assassination against the Soviets. But as he mentally and physically deteriorates, the line between two worlds blurs, and he goes rogue on his governmental overlords.

Set against the backdrop of the Cold War, Brian Churilla weaves a mesmerizing tale of psychic assassination and government conspiracy with one man caught in the middle, fighting against his CIA overlords in a desperate attempt to free himself from the front lines of the most terrifying battlefield of all -- the mind! High on mind altering substances engineered by the Government, what is a soldier to do when the drugs start to take over? Psychedelic meltdown in a Silver Age style! RECOMMENDED BY CASEY!!
