Publisher Description

It's the psychedelic 70s and social conventions are being challenged. When Catherine Moreland from rural Australia goes on her first trip abroad, a handsome American naval officer sweeps her off her feet and she goes to live in beautiful, romantic Hawaii with her new husband.

At first, the magic and loveliness of the Islands lead Catherine to believe she is living in paradise. She befriends Kiann'e, a traditional dancer; Eleanor, the owner of the legendary Palm Grove Hotal; Lester, a reclusive old surfer; and royal Beatrice, leading the fight to maintain Hawaii's heritage and culture.

However, as Catherine learns more about the Islands, she begins to discover that paradise has a darker side. And when she meets a mystery man of the sea, as though hit by a tsunami her life is turned upside down and changed forever.

"Good general campaign coverage. Heavy into the intelligence aspects. Conclusion surprising, and convincing."

    " I love military history, but this is not an area, the campaign in the south Pacific, that I know that much about. I'm still reading this, but it's extremely well documented with primary sources. Mr. Prados has done a very nice job. "

    " I really liked the fact that this book was written by an Australian with an Australian character based in Hawaii. It was a very culturally rich book. A good read.I am looking to reading other books of hers now. "
