Synopsis
Hair-raising, blood-chilling, this terrifying true story of the random street killings that sent waves of panic through San Francisco in 1975 ranks with "Helter Skelter" and "In Cold Blood" as a masterpiece of true-crime writing. They were called the Zebra murders - a reign of terror that held San Francisco in its grip for 179 days. Here is the true story of five Black Muslims who randomly selected twenty-three white victims - men, women and children - for kidnap, rape, robbery, mutilation and murder. Striving to become Death Angels for their God, they set a goal: to sacrifice nine 'blue-eyed devils' each. How they almost succeeded is the story of this brutally honest, sensational and compelling book.
