Resumen del Editor

This is the continuing story of Dr. William Goode in 1840's Waikiki. William's former enemy and new friend, Enoch Pinter, returns from Hawaii to Atlanta to try to rescue his wife who is being held as a slave. While there, Enoch tries to end the search for his runaway friends hiding in Hawaii. Gibbs, captain of the trade ship Aberdeen, is lost on the Argentine Coast and must cross the desolate plains of Patagonia to find his way home. Meanwhile, the chase is on from Atlanta to the southern coast for two new runaways fleeing the oppression of slavery. This tale of action packed historical fiction gives a new perspective to the significance of the tiny archipelago of the Hawaiian Islands, and its strategic position in the mid-nineteenth century world of impending wars and international sea trade. Criminals from China enter the fray as new competitors for dominance on the island of Oahu, known as the gathering place. The Chinese Tong threatens to wipe out all that William and his family hold dear. Rich in details of Hawaii, the Old South, the Chinese underworld, and sea voyages spanning very different worlds, this third book of the Hawaiians Trilogy does not disappoint the reader. From a hurricane in the Atlantic to a wild ride on a makeshift raft down the rapids of an icy river in the Andes, both old and new characters are tested to their limits with nonstop action. Who will survive?
