And the Sea Will Tell

Description

**Grips you by the throat from beginning to end.— *Cleveland Plain Dealer*** 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.
