Book excerpt: Take a ride in the Thunder Chicken?a freshly stolen red Trans Am?with Matthaeus Jaehnig and Lisl Auman on their brief and devastating journey that resulted in the death of Officer Bruce VanderJagt in Denver, 1997. Jaehnig shot VanderJagt then turned the gun on himself?all while Lisl was already in handcuffs in a police cruiser. Two officers later said they saw Lisl hand Jaehnig the murder weapon and she was sentenced to life without parole. But then while in prison she wrote an off-chance letter to journalist Hunter S. Thompson that changed her life. DEAR DR. THOMPSON chronicles Lisl?s epic struggles and takes you inside the last?and perhaps greatest?Gonzo crusade: To free Lisl Auman from prison. This is a tale about death, destruction, lies, justice, the power of media and ultimately, redemption. Was Lisl Auman really a murderer or just in the wrong place at the wrong time? Buckle up and get ready for a wild ride.
