About the Book

Murder, intrigue, and Polynesian mysticism fill the pages as a group of Hawaiians try to resist land speculators.  A young, retired suburban couple, on vacation in Waikiki, become involved as does an ambitious but dizzy blond who unknowingly fronts for the mob.

Hawaii's scenic beauty, contrasted with its cosmopolitan atmosphere, presents an exotic background for this contemporary mystery and adventure.  The legendary Hawaiian goddess of fire, Pele, plays a central role.  

Hula Kapu is a novel about beautiful Hawaii, its land and its mythology.  Barbara and Philip Day, the retired couple on vacation in Hawaii, act as the lens of a camera.  The reader sees and senses Hawaii through their eyes in this easy to read and understand novel.
