He shows us frenzied men, performing grisly murders in the name of a fanatical religion preaching white hatred. And, in crime writing at its finest, he details the exhaustive police work by Detective Gus Coreris   and John Fotimos as they struggle against time and odds to track down the killers and trace the gun that will lead to conviction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Zebra Killings \u003c\/em\u003eis an important book with implications that go beyond its particular events.
