En savoir plus sur le livre
Embark on an unforgettable journey of suspense, adventure, mystery, and romance set in the small town of Kailua, Oahu, during November/December 1941. The story unfolds just before December 7th, imagining a spy infiltrating Kailua Bay. Will he be discovered? What is his mission, and how will it affect the onset of World War II? Amidst this tension, we meet Paul Sands, a young drifter grappling with a family tragedy. Arriving in Kailua just before Thanksgiving 1941, he mourns the loss of his last remaining relative and seeks answers about his grandfather's sudden death. As he delves into this mystery, he is supported by vibrant characters, including Hawaiian/Portuguese cowboy Jorge Luis, his beautiful half-sister Healani, and local policeman Jack Burns. Jorge faces off with local servicemen, while Officer Burns aids in unraveling the mystery, and Healani introduces Paul to the local way of life. The rustic charm of Kailua and Lanikai, dominated by Hawaiian cowboys and diverse cultures, contrasts sharply with the growing military presence. Hogue’s love for the area's beauty shines through, capturing the stunning beaches and lush mountains of Windward Oahu. As war looms, trust becomes a fragile commodity. As the mystery unfolds and tensions rise, Paul Sands' adventure is just beginning, revealing surprises that will captivate readers.
