    About this ebook

    A woman's dead body is tossed off a cruise ship. It's homicide on the high seas, a story of murder and greed, a true crime story you'll never forget.

    A research vessel finds a woman's decomposing corpse floating in the Tyrrhenian Sea, about twenty miles off the Italian shoreline.

    Cruise ships frequent the area. Investigators' best guess is that she came from one of those boats. But which one? And is it a case of accidental death, suicide, or even murder?

     

    Only one boat reported the possibility that a passenger had gone overboard. So she had to have come from the Island Star.

    The mystery of how she died was also swiftly solved. For one simple reason, it had to be a case of homicide.

     

    So, someone murdered this woman while both were aboard the cruise ship. But who was the killer? That's the real mystery in this shocking true crime novel.

    After all, police figured there were only two-thousand suspects aboard the Island Star when Mary Takahashi went into the sea.

     

    Another perplexing question: Why should the DA's office in Orange County, California, prosecute a murder that occurred off the coast of Italy?

     

    Once the OCDA team settled that question, they also had to deal with the fact that their only two witnesses were thousands of miles away when Micki Kanesaki went into the water.

     

    What further complicated the prosecution's case, was the propensity of their star witnesses to lie.

     

    Would the jury believe them? Or would the witnesses rip open a hole of reasonable doubt through which the defense would be able to win a "not guilty" verdict?

     

    The Murder of Mary Takahashi: A Shocking True Crime Story is a fascinating tale of greed and murder. But it's also an extraordinary story of legal intrigue and guile as prosecutors strive to put one of their own, a fellow attorney, in prison for the rest of his life.

     

    The Murder of Mary Takahashi: a  Shocking True Crime Story is the true crime story of 2020 that you'll never forget.
