Mystery Amateur Sleuth
A wedding on the lip of a Hawaiian volcano sounds risky to
Dinah Pelerin, the bride’s best friend and maid of honor.
The bride, Claude Ann Kemper, has bet her heart that she’s
found the right man at last. The groom has gone all in on a
real estate deal he believes will set him and his new wife
up for life. A group of Native Hawaiians claims that the
sacred bones of an ancestral king are buried on the land
the groom plans to sell and one of them has vowed to do
whatever it takes to stop him. Claude Ann’s ex-husband is
stalking her and rigging booby-traps. A blackmailer is
conspiring to cash in on the groom’s suspicious past. And
Pele, the local fire goddess, is rocking the island with a
series of earthquakes. It seems as if the stakes can’t get
any higher. And then somebody shoves a member of the
wedding into a flow of molten lava and all bets are off. True friendship is never easy and Dinah and Claude Ann have
had their misunderstandings. But when danger threatens,
Dinah is determined to protect her friend and repay the
loyalty Claude Ann has shown to her if she has to walk
through fire to do it. Hawaii is a hotbed of ancient myths
and modern conflicts over who should control the land so
cherished by its native people. If Dinah and Claude Ann are
to get out alive, they’ll have to face down an angry
goddess and a ruthless killer.
