Wilson McKenna never wrote a bad check in his life. So how did he end up with $4,000 in returned checks on an island he’s never been to? He knows one thing, make that two, the bank wants their money, and he’s going to Kauai to track down the crook who stole his checks. Before you can say “welcome to the island,” he’s almost arrested for impersonating himself, the woman who trashed his credit turns up dead, and McKenna feels like he’s up to his ‘umi’umi in hot lava. Too late, McKenna realizes that some temptations can get you killed.
“Kauai Temptations is a fast-paced mystery with quirky characters and loads of island charm. Recipe for a great day at the beach: sunscreen, bamboo mat, mango shave ice, and Kauai Temptations in your beach bag!” —JoAnn Bassett, author of The Islands of Aloha Mystery Series

Wilson McKenna was a great skip tracer, but these days he’s just a Honolulu landlord. With a tenant begging him for help. His best friend warning him the gorgeous blonde is trouble. And a life coach he doesn’t want. Oh yeah, McKenna has trouble. He’s desperate to find out who threw a body from a plane on Oahu’s north side so he can get on with his life. If only trouble didn’t have such great legs.
“Toss together a bit of Hawaiian voodoo, a con artist on the trail of a big score, and a wiseass hero. Mix with wit. Add a touch of sarcasm and you have ‘Photo Finish’—a mystery as refreshing as a visit to the islands themselves.” — Deborah Coonts the Lucky O’Toole Vegas Adventure Series
