The Zebra Murders: A Season of Killing, Racial Madness, and Civil Rights was written by our guest, Prentice Earl Sanders. Co-authored by Bennet Cohen, the book documents the racially-motivated serial killings-black on white- that terrorized San Francisco in the fall and winter 1973-1974. Sanders was the young detective who helped solve that case and who later became the most decorated officier in the history of the SFPD and its first African-American police chief.

In her third term in the U.S. Senate, Barbara Boxer, Democrat of California, is the most visible and vocal opponent of president George W. Bush and the Washington D.C. Republicans. In her 2004 election to the Senate she received the highest number of votes of any Senatorial candidate in US history. We will talk to Senator Boxer about politics, the Iraq War, and her first novel A Time to Run. Co-written with Mary-Rose Hayes, it is published by Chronicle Books. It is a political tale of friendship, betrayal and corruption.
