About

Set on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, Namahana takes you from Midwestern, glass-walled, corporate offices over the Pacific and across the spectrum of Kauai neighborhoods, from seemingly idyllic beaches to mountainous inland jungles, all the while, exploring the question of how Big Agriculture executives could be responsible for evil things without, presumably, being evil themselves.

This suspenseful page-turner follows two men unified by a string of disappearances and deaths, as they search for answers - and salvation - in the jungles of Kauai. Together, they must navigate the overlapping and complicated lines between a close-knit community and the hated, but economically necessary corporate farms, and the decades old secrets that bind them.

Delving into the urgent issues wartime trauma, and the long arm of historical injustice, Namahana portrays the complex lives of the people who live in Kauai, Hawaiian life that is worlds away from the all-inclusive resorts or lei ceremonies that tourists see.
