This riveting new mystery series pays loving homage to legendary
author John D. MacDonald. Stryker McBride is a former crime
reporter who lives on a hugely expensive houseboat, "the Travis
McGee." When Stryker receives an unexpected SOS call from a sultry
beauty queen, he agrees to look into the suspicious death of the
woman's grandfather. As Stryker investigates, he encounters a cast
of characters as diverse as Hawaii itself, including Auntie
Kealoha, a charming entertainer turned mobster, and her 400 pound
right-hand man, a Chinese-Hawaiian named Tiny Maunakea. Soon,
Stryker discovers a deadly secret buried deep in the heart of
Hawaii that has consequences much larger than one old man's
death.
Vivid and exhilarating, "Aloha, Lady Blue" transports you right
to the heart of an island paradise populated with exotic women,
glorious scenery, and whispered scandals. Memminger brings Hawaii
to life so vividly that you can almost hear the pounding of the
surf and catch the scent of plumeria on the breeze. Fans of John D.
MacDonald's Travis McGee series will be swept away by this
delicious, action-packed tale.
