Publisher's Synopsis
When a rowboat drifts ashore on a beautiful resort beach on Maui, it brings trouble with it.
A vacationing couple is found dead in the rowboat, along with a mysterious little teddy bear. As soon as the police get involved, they discover Maui Mayor and prominent surgeon, Melanie Kato, isn't far away from the crime. But when they cut open the bear, they find more evidence than what Melanie can explain.
Her life is already overflowing with in-laws, a funky new nanny, and a busy hospital practice. Toss in an inquisitive four-year-old daughter and a baby that needs more attention than Melanie can give him, and something has to give. Making one hard decision after another is nothing new to Melanie, but when it involves her husband while trying to clear herself of heinous crimes, she is pushed to the edge on a moonlit night in the tropics.
