The court room door opened and his mother came over tearfully to his cell door and whispered, “They found him guilty.” “Good lord,” Mike said. “How could they?” It was incredible. Don was returned and the court recessed. Their parents went to get them something to eat and upon returning asked to be locked in with their boys. The boys were really in a sweat now. They realized they could receive up to a twenty year sentence for what they were found guilty of. But no one could understand how they were found guilty. There just wasn’t any evidence.

In 1975, a new group of Peace Corps volunteers landed on the island nation of Tonga. Among them was Deborah Gardner -- a beautiful twenty-three-year-old who, in the following year, would be stabbed twenty-two times and left for dead inside her hut. Another volunteer turned himself in to the Tongan police, and many of the other Americans were sure he had committed the crime. But with the aid of the State Department, he returned home a free man. Although the story was kept quiet in the United States, Deb Gardner's death and the outlandish aftermath took on legendary proportions in Tonga. Now journalist Philip Weiss "shines daylight on the facts of this ugly case with the fervor of an avenging angel" (Chicago Tribune), exposing a gripping tale of love, violence, and clashing ideals. With bravura reporting and vivid, novelistic prose, Weiss transforms a Polynesian legend into a singular artifact of American history and a profoundly moving human story.
