Hawaii Crime

Mortal Cause: Exercise or Execution?

Rate this book
Run and hide, but your past will always catch up to you.

Just ask coach Tom Ross. He is widely considered one of the best swim coaches in America, finding ways for his athletes to win, no matter what. He also has more than his fair share of enemies. When he is found dead after a swim meet, Honolulu police detective Caitlyn Nakamura has too many suspects but very few clues.

To solve the puzzle of who killed Ross, Caitlyn will have to know why someone wanted him dead. Technology won't solve this case, only old-fashioned sleuthing. That means sorting through the liars, asking the right questions, and not being gullible at the worst possible moment. But wise as she is as a police investigator, she learns the hard lesson to never let down her guard for even the briefest moment.

What else happens? Tishler gets mad, Melanie gets even, Maile goes for a run, Nancy takes a dive, Tag and Davina write tickets, and the Ala Wai Canal gets flushed. What could go wrong?

This edition includes the short story Nine One One.
