On 5/16/1948, the body of CBS correspondent George Polk was found floating in Greece's Salonika Bay, where he'd been stationed to report on their bloody civil war. The murder was allegedly solved, but Kati Marton has conctructed a vivid, convincing account of who really ordered the assasination of George Polk & of the motive behind it.
