Synopsis

Dr. Peter Chesterfield is the top neurosurgeon at the Royal London Hospital. He’s also a workaholic, and after a blow-up with a colleague, his boss orders him to attend a medical symposium at the luxurious Elysium Grand on the island of Maui.

During a midnight walk on the beach, Peter pulls a woman with a skull fracture from the water. Despite all his skill, she dies in his arms, leaving him with only one clue to what happened to her: the word “honu.”

Obsessed with finding the cause of his patient’s death—discovering what or who ripped the power over life and death from his surgeon hands—Peter becomes entangled in an ongoing investigation. He also becomes a source of deep irritation
to detective Lisa Kealoha, who has jurisdiction over the case.

The reluctant pair join forces, diving deep into Maui’s evolving gang culture, and unearth a conspiracy that runs deeper than either could have imagined. Knowing too much is deadly—and they must catch the killer before the killer catches them.

About James R. Hannibal

James R. Hannibal is no stranger to deep dark secrets or hunting bad guys, having served in the US Air Force as a stealth bomber pilot and a Predator mission commander. Like Jack Buckles, James “suffers” from synesthesia, an intersection of the senses that was once considered a mental illness and often causes hyperobservance. If you bake him a cake, he might tell you that it smells blue and sticky—and you should take it as a compliment. You can learn more at TheLostPropertyOffice.com.

First off, this book has one fatal flaw. I've got to wait a year before I can read the next. And that's if they even DO another book. So not fair. So here's my .02. Baker Publishing? WE WANT MORE! Okay, so does that hint at how much I enjoyed it? This fast-paced mystery with a splash of suspense kept......more
