    No sex criminal, from Jack the Ripper to Zodiac to the Green River Killer, inhabits the popular mind as does Bundy. Now, the two men who know Bundy’s criminal nature best – Dr. Robert Keppel and author Stephen Michaud – have teamed to write the definitive narrative of Bundy’s bloody career, as well as the inside story of how Keppel tracked the elusive killer for 15 years, from his first days as a rookie Seattle homicide investigator to a series of tense encounters within the Florida State Prison where Bundy, in a doomed attempt at forestalling his execution, finally gave up some of his Terrible Secrets. The story of Keppel’s long struggle to identify the handsome, articulate onetime law student, and confront him with his crimes, is abundantly illustrated with photos, drawings and documents from the investigator’s personal file. The book’s dozens of pictures include a map of Bundy’s Issaquah, Washington, hillside body dump that Ted drew for Keppel at the prison. Also shown for the first time are handwritten notes from Bundy’s investigative file. The authors also draw from Keppel’s extensive mail correspondence with Bundy. The result is a riveting, close-up portrait of a “diabolical genius,” as a federal judge described Bundy, stripped of myths and misinformation and revealed - in his own words – for the archly-sly, murder-obsessed predator he became. There’s never been a book quite like Terrible Secrets.

    Reclusive as these animals are, they do resemble humans in several ways; their appearance is “humanoid” and there is evidence they have family units and a hierarchy of command not unlike humans. They ask nothing from us, and they infrequently take anything from man! This volume of Sasquatch sightings and encounters span North America; from British Columbia, to our Eastern and Southern states; Pennsylvania, Maine and North Carolina, and then to the western part of the United States; including Colorado, Montana, Idaho, Oregon, Northern California and Washington state. Our friends at The Sasquatch Outpost in Bailey, Colorado are featured in this book because not only have they brought us contributors of Colorado Bigfoot sightings, they have been dedicated to researching the Sasquatch and preserving evidence of Bigfoot. Their museum, “The Sasquatch Encounter Discovery Museum” provides a great learning tool for those who have never had a Sasquatch experience or would just like to learn more. Our many thanks to Jim and Daphne Myers at The Sasquatch Outpost for their support and their dedication to protecting North America’s endangered indigenous species of Bigfoot! Since these mysterious beings have convinced vast numbers of us of their existence, and also of their desire to live peaceably, we have the same goal. Thank you for your courtesy in observing and enjoying the realization that there are some things that man has not yet destroyed! We have taken great care to guarantee the privacy of every submitter, and due to having proven our confidentiality, more stories have arrived and are in this fifth volume; “SASQUATCH! Reports from the Field.” We try to do verification of the stories we accept, and although we cannot guarantee the validity of any submissions, we use due diligence to interview those whose story seems to be outside what the majority have established as the “norm;” if there could be one. Although our personal experiences with Bigfoot are limited to only a few instances, as we are always accompanied by two curious and noisy dogs; we have interviewed enough people from all walks of life, many with highly respected credentials that we must believe that Sasquatch lives!
