From award winning crime writer
R. Barri Flowers and bestselling author of the Murder in Hawaii Mysteries comes a gripping Maui mystery suspense
novelette, Killer Connection.
Honolulu fashion designer
Kiyoshi Yoshida had just gone through the worst year of her life after losing
her twin brother and husband, costing Kiyoshi nearly everything she held most
dear.
In what still gave Kiyoshi
chills in disbelief, her brother Sergio Matsuko, one time dedicated and
decorated homicide detective for the Honolulu Police Department, had stunned
nearly everyone who knew him by being identified as the Aloha Black Scarf
Killer, a serial killer who had raped and murdered seven women, before
committing suicide in a house fire.
Seeking to escape the notoriety,
Kiyoshi relocated to Maui, hoping to somehow reclaim her life while working as
a saleswoman in an upscale clothing store.
Connor Jansen, a bestselling
true crime writer, tracked down Kiyoshi, hoping to get information on Matsuko
for his latest book on the notorious island serial killer. Using a pseudonym,
Connor worms his way into Kiyoshi’s life, only to have second thoughts about
his deception.
In the meantime, a killer has
been watching Kiyoshi, waiting for the right time to add here to her list of
victims.
Bonus material includes excerpts
from R. Barri Flowers’ bestselling Hawaii mystery novels, Murder in Maui, Murder in
Honolulu, and Seduced to Kill in Kauai; as well as
a glitzy contemporary suspense novelette, Kaanapali Beach Paradise.
