Emerald Flash

PARADISE LOST

A naked woman running from a man with a gun is not John Caine's idea of a perfect Hawaiian evening, but as usual he goes to the rescue. The ex-Naval officer turned P.I. would rather be on his classic boat Olympia, draining an Edelweiss and watching a mountain rainbow. When the selfsame Margo Halliday's abusive ex-husband is found dead a few months later and she turns up on Caine's boat, tanned, lush, and desperate, he knows he's bought trouble big-time.

Fleeing thugs with high-powered rifles, Caine speeds her to Kauai, an emerald jewel on a sapphire sea, where the ugly truth about her past emerges. Suddenly, they're on a lethal chase through island jungles, caught in a tangle of greed, revenge, and deadly lies...
