Racing against time, Tanny travels to Hilo where he joins forces with Fiona's friend, Herman Haukea, a loyal Hawaiian native with shoulders as broad as his sense of honor. Together they navigate the island's complex underworld, encountering unlikely allies in their desperate search: a no-nonsense detective who plays by the rules, a strip club owner with his own moral code, Fiona's father, Sean and the enigmatic Kai Kanoa'a, protégé to The Kahuna, the Hawaiian spiritual leader.

In the heart of Hawaii's beauty, unexpected heroes will emerge, and a professor's love will fuel a desperate mission to save the woman who completes his world-before she vanishes without a trace.
