Publisher's summary

Detective Alex Penfield has to solve a murder case before it happens. His own.

Retirement never suited Detective Alex Penfield, but there's nothing like a death omen to get you back in the saddle. A psychic colleague warns the detective that his own murder is coming. When a local death bears an eerie resemblance to the psychic's vision, he can't help but get involved.

As the body count rises, the case only gets more unfathomable. Witnesses report ghastly encounters with a man sporting half a face. And the only living survivor from a deadly boat ride claims he knows who's to blame. There's only one problem: the suspect's been dead for 20 years.

Wait, What?

First of all I really love the Murder on Maui books Robert W Stevens writes smart and funny. That being said I don't get these books I try, it doesn't seem Alex ever gets that strange juju is going on and the story seems to be very disjointed .I didn't think I would read the 2nd book after reading the 1st one which I really didn't get. I still don't get . Don't want to give anything away in these books But don't get to attached to any of the supporting players. James Fouhey is excellent in his Narration. as always.
