Ted Bundy referred to his first bolt for freedom as The Great Escape. Recognizing that books, documentaries, and films concerning Bundy had completely glossed over this manhunt, Ric Conrad set out to discover what happened during that legendary week in Aspen.

With the understanding that authors have generally focused on the fugitive himself, Conrad's desire was to tell this story from the perspective of law enforcement. He tracked down, interviewed, or corresponded with thirty-six individuals who had participated in the manhunt or had crucial details concerning the event.

He puts the reader in the field: on horseback as a member of the sheriff's posse, behind the wheel of a police car as the streets of Aspen are searched, on foot in the mountains surrounding town, and in the chairs in dispatch-making the tough decisions.

Representatives from the Pitkin County Sheriff's Department, Aspen Police Department, Aspen-Pitkin County Communications Center, Colorado State Highway Patrol, and the Colorado Bureau of Investigation have all shared their memories in this gripping yet campy volume.

The community's strange mix of disbelief and humor in Aspen was palpable as law enforcement members headed into the hills, in search of America's most notorious serial killer.
