Synopsis

Ghosts of Honolulu

Ghosts of Honolulu: A Japanese Spy, a Japanese American Spy Hunter, and the Untold Story of Pearl Harbor" by Mark Harmon and Leon Carroll, Jr. is a non-fiction book that delves into the world of espionage in Hawaii during World War II. 

The book highlights the work of the precursor to the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) in combating Japanese spies. A significant figure in the narrative is Douglas Wada, the only Japanese-American counterintelligence agent in Hawaii at the time. 

Wada's task was to monitor the local Japanese population, although he and his colleagues primarily focused on the Japanese consular agents as the real spies. The book describes the covert activities and challenges faced by Wada and his team, especially after the Pearl Harbor attack, which was facilitated by information from a spy in the Honolulu consulate.

To Die For

Willow Rose

Former FBI profiler Eva Rae Thomas is caught off-guard by a murderous plan that sends her on a pulse-pounding race against time in this romantic thriller by Willow Rose. It is a typical Tuesday morning. Scott Benton gets up, kisses his girlfriend Sarah good-bye, and goes to work. But when he returns home from work later in the afternoon, his girlfriend of two years is gone. And just like that, Scott’s life is turned upside down. The police are after him, thinking he'd hurt her. His friends and family have turned their backs on him, thinking the same. Meanwhile, there is one thing Scott can’t stop thinking about. Two months ago, Sarah told him that he should go looking for her if she ever turned up missing. Former FBI profiler Eva Rae Thomas has enough on her plate as it is: a newborn baby, an upcoming marriage, and a house not big enough to fit them all. On top of it, she takes in a young girl who is in serious trouble, only adding to the strain on her family life. When Scott Benton shows up and tells her she’s his only hope in finding his girlfriend, Eva Rae is inclined to say no, but she can’t get herself to do it. Scott and Eva Rae used to date for a brief period in high school, and Eva Rae isn’t the type of person who just can stop caring about someone. Especially when they have nowhere else to turn. As the investigation deepens, Eva Rae Thomas finds out what it is from her past that Sarah was so afraid of, and she’ll need all of her profiling skills in the race against time to find the girl before it is too late.
