No, sorry. It's a book that's also available as audiobook, although it's one where the author reads it himself and he isn't a voice actor so, while fascinating, it can be a bit of a chore to listen to. Dude is a dude, not really a professional writer, so it's great but a little dense and peppered with personal stories because, well, it's about his life.
Unlike "I'll be gone in the dark", which is a great book by a great writer and read by a voice actor...truly fascinating all around.
Here's the book on Amazon. Basically, zodiac was a dude who abandoned this guy soon after birth, and his search to find his parents leads him to this discovery. There are way, way too many coincidences, including solves of the unsolved cyphers.

If you're interested in the Zodiac cases, I highly recommend The Most Dangerous Animal of All by Gary L. Stewart, released earlier this year. The author presents a pretty damn convincing case that his father was the Zodiac. Hand-writing experts agree.
Well if you are into true crime at all, then two that jump to mind are In Cold Blood by Truman Capote and The Devil in the White City. The first is an older book written about a small town murder while the latter is about the serial killer H. H. Holmes. Both are fantastic reads despite their subject matter.
Speaking of serial killers, Gary Stewart makes a compelling argument in his book The Most Dangerous Animal of All that his biological father might have been the Zodiac Killer. What started out as a simple story of an adopted son trying to find his biological parents turns into a quest of discovery of a murderer. Many "experts" on the subject aren't sure about Stewart's claims, but his discoveries make a compelling argument.
Lastly, Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand was recently made into a pretty decent movie, and In Harm's Way: The Sinking of the U.S.S. Indianapolis is often featured on shark week and will soon have a movie made as well. Both are fascinating WWII-related reads that seem to cross the line from being biographical to novelized due to the content and excellent writing.
