Hawaiian Dick

Summary

1953, Hawaii. WWII vet Byrd is thrown off his stateside police force after an incident with a suspect. Having nowhere else to go, Byrd turns to his Army buddy, Mo Kalama, a detective in Hawaii. He now spends his days drinking tropical concoctions and his nights helping Mo with cases that fall just beyond the jurisdiction of the police. And in Byrd''s Hawaii, the supernatural manifestations of the islands'' myths and legends lie just around every corner. When Byrd is pulled away from a lazy afternoon of jazz and cocktails to track down a stolen ''49 Buick Roadmaster, the case seems simple enough. Yet he''s soon immersed in a dark paradise of swank tiki lounges, exotic bar girls, murdered beauties, high speed chases along the scenic Hawaiian coast, and the mysterious Night Marchers of the Pali Highway. Now Byrd and Mo must untangle this tropical web of tiki terror without becoming ensnared themselves.
