An enjoyable story, well-written, with good character development and an intriguing plot. It kept my interest till the end!
Good mystery with beautiful descriptions of Oahu and Maui.
I love the Lei Crime series.
well written
I truly enjoy books by Toby Neal. Yet another book starring Lee Texiera, a great character, who overcomes her own challenges, and like a bulldog tenaciously keeps digging for the truth, until the case is solved. The setting is Hawaii, and this time the world of surfing. I gained a little insight into surfing, as well as reading another enjoyable book.
Somewhat predictable, but an enjoyable read
Love this book, Lei is a police detective, who is impulsive and flawed. The story takes place in beautiful Hawaii. I could not put the book down. I started the whole Lei Texeira series, wonderful characters, new and recurring in every book. You sleep, because you don’t want to put it down.
Kept you guessing until the end
I’ve read several of Lei Texeira novels by Toby Neal. They are a good, entertaining read.
Love it so much have to start reading the whole series!
This book is another in the author’s series of crime novels set in Hawaii. Those who know Don’s follow competitive surfing will particularly enjoy it. The book provides s good picture of life as a police officer who is also married to a cop. I always enjoy these books and look forward to the next one.
Love the main character, Lei. I follow all of these stories with her as the prime character. Complex stories but not to the point where I lose track of what is going on.
Thoroughly enjoyable read. Great characters.
Kept me reading till I was done with last page
A who done it in an exotic setting. Enjoyable book. I look forward to reading more from this author.
I have read and enjoyed several of the books in the Lei Crime series. Like the Hawaiian setting. Entertaining.
I have previously read other books by this author and have enjoyed them all. I like her writing style and the characters she has created, as well as the Hawaii settings. Each book in the series is a stand alone story but it is helpful if you read them in order.
Another breathtaking Lex Texeira mystery in an intriguing and heartsyopping series. I love Hawaii, and every novel takes me right back to the beauty and magic of the islands; as I’m reading, I’m right there in the lives of Lex and her friends and family.
Action packed with a complex plot, this book will keep you turning pages. There’s death, and a hodgepodge of relationships both professional and personal on both sides of the investigation to complicate things.
Part of a series about a lady detective in Hawaii…lots of plot twists in a beautiful place…could be stand alone but better if you have been reading the previous books in the series
