But she's immediately sent to Hana on Maui's rain-soaked shore to find a kidnapped woman.Throw in arson, strident environmentalists bent on stirring up strife between local rights activists and foreign property developers, a chill local police lieutenant, a taciturn geologist, and top it all off with a rogue Homeland Security agent.The case twists through the jungles on Maui's volcano, ready to explode unless Vanessa finds answers fast."TORN ROOTS is wonderfully rich with plot and setting, but it was Mr. Bury's command of the story's pacing that impressed me most."-Eden Baylee, author of Stranger at Sunset"I made the mistake of picking up this book and could not stop reading."-Frederick Lee Brooke, author of Doing Max Vinyl"Made me feel like I was there in person!"-Sue Devers"I have never been to Hawaii but reading the detailed descriptions of its beauty in this book has made me feel like I've actually been there."-Joy A.
