Dear Kids and all Readers,
I’ve misplaced my four main characters! I’m talking, of course, about our Botanic Hill Detectives.
Last time I saw Lanny, Lexi, Moki, and Rani–which was about THREE WEEKS AGO (Ugh!)–they were enjoying the surf, sand, and sun on O’ahu while also working seriously on their next case. 
I know what you’re asking: “What do you mean, you’ve ‘misplaced’ the detectives?”
It’s simple, but sad: I’ve been so busy launching Book 3, Walnut Street: Phantom Rider, that I haven’t had time to return to Book 4, Saffron Street: Island Danger, which is set on O’ahu. In Book 4, the detectives are searching for the Yamada family’s missing heirloom, a black Tahitian pearl necklace, that vanished on the very day of the Pearl Harbor bombing–December 7, 1941.
I do miss my detectives. I also miss leaving my space and entering theirs. That’s one of the joys of writing that I will resume VERY soon. I must. I hear the detectives, the ocean waves, and the swaying palm trees calling. Here I come!
So, readers, get a clue! It’s time for holiday shopping. All three of my books are now available for online ordering. I encourage you to support your local indie bookstores! Here are a variety of links:
