Tragedy struck when the vessel mysteriously sank in the middle of the Caribbean. Julian Harvey was found days later, claiming that a sudden storm had destroyed the yacht and drowned everyone else. However, suspicion grew as his version of events seemed inconsistent with the conditions reported at sea.
The real twist came when 11-year-old Terry Jo Duperrault, thought to be among the victims, was discovered floating alone on a cork raft after four days adrift.

Terry Jo’s miraculous survival unraveled one of the most shocking crimes at sea, leaving the world stunned by the lengths Harvey went to conceal his crimes.
