"I Told Washington, DC of the Impending Suicides..."
Phil Kerns, former Jones cultist, relives his desperation: "When the news bulletin announced the death of Congressman Ryan, I immediately called officials in Washington... but no one believed me... my mother and my sister were among the victims in Guyana."

Kerns reveals heretofore secret truths about People's Temple. The original material presented here comes from the author's six-year investigation of Jim Jones, an attempt to bring indictments against the cult leader for the murder of a friend. Exclusive interviews with Jones's inner circle give the behind-the-scenes story of the murder-suicides.
People's Temple, People's Tomb follows Phil Kerns as he begins his search for God, becomes disillusioned with Jim Jones and finally discovers the true meaning of spiritual rebirth.
