For while touring historic Kawai Nui Marsh puts Natalie and her new friends in the crosshairs of a wily adversary.

What Reviewers say
Kirkus Reviews
...a winsomely detailed setting...the protagonist is first-rate. The plot offers a couple of impressive twists…A diverting tale led by a smashing amateur detective whose dexterity far exceeds her paranormal gift.
Manhattan Book Review, 4.5 Stars
The use of Hawaiian words and explanations was also a very nice touch, making me feel that I was part of the local culture…The story had many layers as well as some twists and turns, which kept me glued to the pages...
N. Jones, Amazon, 5 Stars
This is my first Natalie Seachrist story, but won't be my last. The story was quick paced, yet lingered appropriately on Hawaii life. The author took time to develop each character, and ensure their place in the story was appropriate.
