520    "Lies, murder, and a legendary courtroom battle threaten 
       to tear apart the Territory of Hawaii. In September of 
       1931, Thalia Massie, a young naval lieutenant's wife, 
       claims to have been raped by five Hawaiian men in 
       Honolulu. Following a hung jury in the rape trial, 
       Thalia's mother, socialite Grace Fortescue, and husband, 
       along with two sailors, kidnap one of the accused in an 
       attempt to coerce a confession. When they are caught after
       killing him and trying to dump his body in the ocean, Mrs.
       Fortescue's society friends raise enough money to hire 
       seventy-four-year-old Clarence Darrow out of retirement to
       defend the vigilante killers. The result is an epic 
       courtroom battle between Darrow and the Territory of 
       Hawaii's top prosecutor, John C. Kelley, in a case that 
       threatens to touch off a race war in Hawaii and results in
       one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in American 
       history. Written in the style of a novel, but meticulously
       following the historical record, A Death in the Islands 
       weaves a story of lies, deception, mental illness, racism,
       revenge, and murder-a series of events in the Territory of
       Hawaii that nearly tore apart the peaceful islands, 
       reverberating from the tenements of Honolulu to the 
       hallowed halls of Congress, and right into the Oval Office
       itself, and left a stain on the legacy of one of the 
       greatest legal minds of all time"--|cProvided by
