Henry Wilkens burst through the doors of an emergency room covered in his wife's blood. Was he a grieving husband or a ruthless killer? To unravel the mystery, the San Francisco police turned to new technology invented by a rookie detective, a visionary police chief and a teenage magician. What started as hope for a fairer justice system turned friends to bitter enemies, caused countless deaths and transformed the meaning of truth. 'Tremors in the blood' reveals the incredible story behind the creation of the polygraph, through gripping true-crime cases and shocking twists.
