About this ebook

"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.

Ratings and reviews

The first half of the book was very well written and suspenseful. However, the second half was very, very long and drawn out with the two trials. Mr. Bugliosi spoke very highly of himself which added nothing but arrogance on his part. I don't believe Jennifer is innocent.

Based on a true story. This is by far the best book I've ever read. It took only a week to read because I could hardly put it down.
