The Murder of Mary Takahashi is a chilling true crime story of betrayal, high-seas homicide, and a decade-long fight for justice.

When a decomposing body is discovered floating in the Tyrrhenian Sea, investigators trace the woman -- Mary Takahashi -- back to a luxury cruise ship, the Island Star. With only one missing person report filed, suspicion quickly narrows.

But this is no ordinary case. The victim was pushed into the sea in international waters, and the prime suspect is a high-powered attorney from Orange County, California. Why would a California district attorney prosecute a murder thousands of miles away, in a different country?

What follows is a labyrinth of legal maneuvering, shifting testimonies, and relentless prosecution -- complicated by witnesses who keep changing their stories and who may have their own agendas. Was it cold-blooded murder or something more complex?

Greed, deception, and a deadly fall -- this is the unforgettable true story of how justice caught up with a killer who thought he was untouchable.
