The Waimea Two-Step

THE WIDE OPEN SPACES OF WAIMEA HOLD PLENTY OF SECRETS

So when Noelani Lee's sister ropes her into investigating the unsolved murder of an environmental activist, the Hawaiian private eye finds herself corralling a host of deep-seated mysteries and long-held grudges that could destroy a legendary ranching family's storied reputation.

As she retraces the dead woman's undercover probe into rumors of genetically-modified "super cattle" roaming the fabled Carswell Ranch, Noelani must lasso the ranch's influential owner and his wife; their prodigal son and daughter-in-law; a transgendered artist; the rugby-playing ranch manager; and an ex-con with a beef who's bent on rounding up a slew of loose ends.

To find the killer, Noelani will have to stay tall in the saddle and keep a tight grip on the reins as she rides a trail of adventure that could shake the town of Waimea down to the soles of its big, pointy boots.
