For twenty-three nightmarish days, a series of random sniper killings terrorized the Washington, D.C. area and launched the largest manhunt in American history—under the harsh glare of a media frenzy.  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eThree Weeks in October\u003c\/i\u003e follows Charles Moose’s efforts to crack a seemingly unsolvable case.
