Synopsis

When Hank Pualoa drives drunk, killing his beautiful wife, he tears apart his Hawaiian family (ohana) and leaves the Islands in shame. His children thrive with their grandmother until twelve-year-old Kekoa witnesses the murder of Big John, his loving uncle. The murderer stalks him, plotting to kill his only witness. Kekoa flees, plunging into a hand-to-mouth life in the sugarcane fields, the Chinatown streets, and as a baker’s helper to a Japanese couple. A stray black Lab becomes his only friend. He’s lost his sister, Leilani, to a foster home, where she falls in love but yearns for her family. And will their father ever return?Cry Ohana vibrates with local color and breathtaking scenery. But danger lurks everywhere—at a Filipino wedding; at a Maui resort; and amid the Big Island’s volcanic steam vents. Blackmail and betrayal erupt as the family struggles to re-unite and bring down the killer.
