Lis Wiehl was a Fox News legal analyst for 15 years and a reporter/legal analyst for NBC News and NPR’s All Things Considered, before that. She has come out with her second historical thriller in The Hunting Series, titled Hunting the Unabomber: The FBI, Ted Kaczynski, and the Capture of America’s Most Notorious Domestic Terrorist.

The first in the series, Hunting Charles Manson, co-written with Caitlin Rother, was based on a re-examination of the 50-year-old case with new interviews, reviews of original source materials and  dozens of parole hearing transcripts. Wiehl, a former Federal prosecutor, relied on those same research methods to take a fresh look at the search for Theodore Kaczynski, an effort rife with inter-agency law enforcement conflicts that was almost shut down by the 150-member FBI team on the case before a stroke of luck led to the arrest of the criminally insane math prodigy. By that time, Kaczynski had killed three people and maimed more than a dozen others with bombs sent in the mail to random individuals. Wiehl, who lives in New York, is a professor of law at the New York Law School, a private law school in Tribeca, NYC.
