Red Sky Over Hawaii

De: Sara Ackerman

Narrado por: Jennifer Robideau

Inspired by real places and events of WWII, Red Sky Over Hawaii immerses the reader in a time of American history full of suspicion and peril in this lush and poignant tale about the indisputable power of doing the right thing against all odds.

The attack on Pearl Harbor changes everything for Lana Hitchcock. Arriving home on the Big Island too late to reconcile with her estranged father, she is left alone to untangle the clues of his legacy, which lead to a secret property tucked away in the remote rain forest of Kilauea volcano. When the government starts taking away her neighbors as suspected sympathizers, Lana shelters two young German girls, a Japanese fisherman and his son. As tensions escalate, they are forced into hiding—only to discover the hideaway house is not what they expected.

When a detainment camp is established nearby, Lana struggles to keep the secrets of those in her care. Trust could have dangerous consequences. As their lives weave together, Lana begins to understand the true meaning of family and how the bonds of love carry us through the worst times.

Love this book! Outstanding story!

I Really enjoyed this book. I recommend it especially for the Hawaii lover. Sarah made it seem like I was a part of the book.

Return to the Big Island

Having lived on the Big Island for 8 years, this big took me back to magical memories, together with filling in historical events during World War 2. It showed how love can develop among strangers.

History from a different perspective

We all know the date of December 7th 1941. What we may not know is what happened to the innocent people who lived in Hawaii and how they were thrown into detention camps and separated from their children. Sara Ackerman does an excellent job of taking us to that time and place. A wonderful story that makes me want to go to the islands and visit all the places in the story.

Just s good on second listen!

Just s good on second listen! Even though I had heard this book maybe a year ago, I decided to listen to it again and loved as much if not more, all of the characters and their challenges and triumphs!

A little disappointed

there are so many incredible and heartbreaking stories from this era. I hoped this book would spent more time on one of them instead of the predictable love story that seem to take centerstage,
