How to Find Zodiac

By: Jarett Kobek

Narrated by: Scott Brick

Dear Reader,

This is not the Zodiac speaking.

The one thing that I ask of you is this: please listen to this book. It is called How to Find Zodiac.

Being that this book is about the Zodiac, it offers a new suspect. The theory is probably correct. At the moment, the theory is unproven. But the idea is a bomb waiting to go massive. Can you see the flaws in the hunting method, or will you just agree and say, 'case closed'?

Either way, one thing is true: Zodiac can never look and seem the same after you listen to this book.

It was written by Jarett Kobek.

How to Find Zodiac includes an exclusive interview between author Jarett Kobek, true crime aficionado Rebecca Lavoie, and host of True Crime Obsessed, Patrick Hinds. This title encourages you to forget everything you think you know about the infamous killer as it reinvestigates what's possible within the case and poses a new suggestion of who's to blame.

Founder of the Obsessed Network and co-host of the True Crime Obsessed podcast, Patrick Hinds, agrees that the true Zodiac killer is probably revealed in Jarett Kobek's How to Find Zodiac. A mystery that has been at the forefront of American culture for decades, the title will continue to be a large topic of discussion on the True Crime Obsessed podcast and will be a featured panel at Obsessed Fest this fall. Any fans of true crime will be instantly hooked to learn who the real Zodiac most likely is.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic reviews

“A scruffy masterpiece of criminology. It seems to me that either Kobek's painstaking deductions are correct, or we must urgently revise the laws of probability." - Alan Moore, author of From Hell

Putting a square in a round hole

If this were shortened… immensely…it would be an interesting hypothesis and good entertainment but after redundant repeat over and over again and an obvious self serving bias to make Doeer fit as a square in a round hole I lost the ability to stay interested and open.

Not as bad as the ratings

It’s ok. I don’t get why it is being rated so low but it’s not for me. It definitely didn’t convince me that the suspect was the Zodiac. I love Patrick though!

Good theory, terrible execution

Like others have said, I really wanted to like this book but I just can't. The theory is good and I think the author is on to something but it is HORRIBLY narrated. It was so hard to stay engaged with the story because it felt like a boring college lecture. This is how the kids at Hogwarts must have felt in Professors Binns' History of Magic class.

Wanted to enjoy this

Purchased based on podcast recommendation. I believe the author has uncovered information that should be pursued by law enforcement and may potentially close the case. That said, I absolutely hated the way this is written. The refusal to use pronouns and constantly referring to himself in the third person was grating. I gave up listening during chapter 4 and instead read a magazine article highlighting the book’s most compelling evidence.

I tried.

This book is basically a chronicle of the pre-internet “internet” activities of a mediocre white man, and it’s about as interesting as that sounds, which is to say, it isn’t. I generally don’t leave reviews on books unless I’ve read the entire thing, but I just couldn’t do it with this one. I made it to chapter 7 so I think I made a good effort. I was constantly thrown off by the author’s use of the third person, which was employed throughout for no discernible reason except for the listener to hear his name as many times as possible. It *is* a PR tactic, so maybe that’s what he was going for? Kobek, just say “I found,” “I thought,” etc. It would have made the book more personal at least and less like the writer is another character in the story to keep track of. Kobek, I’m sorry I didn’t like you book, I know you put a lot of time and effort into the research, and frankly I’m amazed that ANY of this kept your attention long enough to write about it.
