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.
