Von der hinteren Coverseite

"Elysium Tide felt like a vacation and a jolt of adrenaline at the same time. Be prepared to read this book in one sitting."--Cara Putman, bestselling, award-winning author of Lethal Intent and Flight Risk

***

Dr. Peter Chesterfield is the top neurosurgeon at the Royal London Hospital. He's also a workaholic, and after a blow-up with a colleague, his boss orders him to attend a medical symposium at the luxurious Elysium Grand on the island of Maui. During a midnight walk on the beach, Peter pulls a woman with a skull fracture from the water. Despite all his skill, she dies in his arms, leaving him with only one clue to what happened to her: the word "honu."

Obsessed with finding the cause of his patient's death--discovering what or who ripped the power over life and death from his surgeon's hands--Peter becomes entangled in an ongoing investigation. He also becomes a source of deep irritation to detective Lisa Kealoha, who has jurisdiction over the case.

The reluctant pair join forces, diving deep into Maui's evolving gang culture, and unearth a conspiracy that runs deeper than either could have imagined. Knowing too much is deadly--and they must catch the killer before the killer catches them.

"A compelling, pulse-pounding suspense and action-packed mystery that had me enthralled from beginning to end. Reading it was like watching a movie."--Patricia H. Rushford, award-winning mystery writer and author of the Angel Delaney Mysteries

"Maui's Road to Hana doesn't have anything on the white-knuckled suspense and hairpin twists and turns Hannibal delivers in Elysium Tide. Remember to breathe!"--Natalie Walters, author of Lights Out from The SNAP Agency series

"Unputdownable. A twisty, fast-paced, and utterly compelling read from a master of the genre."--Tosca Lee, New York Times bestselling author
