Her death is chalked up as just another teenage hooker consumed by the streets. But to the grieving grandmother who raised her, Marisol’s homicide isn’t merely a statistic. To make matters worse, at the same time she’s burying one granddaughter she’s desperately trying to keep Marisol’s fourteen-year-old sister, Belicia, from succumbing to a similar fate. As a favor to a friend, former-soldier, ex-cop, and part-time private investigator Chauncey ‘Chance’ Means agrees to look into the killing. It’s a murder the local police admit they have little likelihood of solving. Complicating things, is the fact that Chance left law enforcement with more than a few enemies and a well-earned reputation as a man who doesn’t let rules get in the way. Following a trail of apathetic cops, street-hardened prostitutes, pimps, and gangsters, Chance scours the San Francisco Bay in search of a merciless child-killer. He soon discovers there are people who don’t want him looking into Marisol’s murder. Men who will do whatever it takes to stop him.

Lei Crime Series Boxed Set: Books 1-4


Toby Neal - 2014
    No one can read just one! "Toby Neal's storytelling skills are evident in these books about a female law enforcement office in the Hawaiian Islands. The characters are always strong, interesting people with many layers to their personalities. Their actions often surprise, but not without clues laid by the author that help the reader understand. The plots are crafted with care, created so that they flow naturally and never feel forced. The stories pull in the reader and make it impossible to put down the books; I've often lost sleep when reading her latest because I end up reading late into the night. Most importantly, these books are a sort of immersion course in Hawaiian culture, food, and geography. There are many layers of details in these novels, information about native Hawaiians and those new to the islands, how the various cultures sometimes clash, how outsiders may have to alter their behaviors to be accepted fully. The food descriptions alone are enough reason to read the books.I loved every book in this series, each one adding to the story of Lei, her life, her family, her complex history, and finally, her growth into an amazing law enforcement officer." F. Pepoon, Reviewer
