Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

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.
