And the Sea Will Tell Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Alone with her new husband on a tiny Pacific atoll, a young woman, combing the beach, finds an odd aluminum container washed up out of the lagoon, and beside it on the sand something glitters: a gold tooth in a scorched human skull.

The investigation that follows uncovers an extraordinarily complex and puzzling true-crime story. Only Vincent Bugliosi, who recounted his successful prosecution of mass murderer Charles Manson in the bestseller Helter Skelter, was able to draw together the hundreds of conflicting details of the mystery and reconstruct what really happened when four people found hell in a tropical paradise.

And the Sea Will Tell reconstructs the events and subsequent trial of a riveting true murder mystery, and probes into the dark heart of a serpentine scenario of death. 24 photographs.

Review:

"Writing with Henderson, Bugliosi...offers a case history which could have been a true-crime classic if not for the 250 tedious pages devoted to his client's 23-day trial." Publishers Weekly

Review:

"Not as grisly as Helter Skelter, this tale is just as riveting — proving once again that the best stories come right out of newspaper headlines." Library Journal

Synopsis:

"Grips you by the throat from beginning to end."--Cleveland Plain Dealer
