Voice of the Victim (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781954871809)

A beloved husband scientist is shot in Maui's peaceful 'Iao Valley.

Olympic athletes are killed on luxury cruises around the world.

Can two of Maui's finest stop the violence?

Detective Sergeant Keone Boyd travels to the Mediterranean with his new bride, while in Maui, his boss Tony Alcala investigates a horrific shooting in the normally peaceful 'Iao Valley. Since the victim is a former neighbor of his protégé, Sgt. Angela Beyers, Alcala gives her the case.

During her investigation, Angela discovers a file on the victim's computer with clues to the shooting. But the file was saved while the victim was in a coma and no one else had access. So who left the clues? And how?

As Angela investigates, Keone honeymoons on a luxury cruise but is soon recruited by Europol to investigate a serial killer methodically eliminating Olympic athletes. The killer, who claims to be the Greek god of death, has targeted a group of Canadian Olympic medalists on the ship.

Does the computer file contain actual memories or a vivid fantasy? Is a mythical god sending athletes to Elysium, or is a deranged maniac murdering them? Are the investigations related or are the lines between reality and fantasy dissolving both on Maui and twelve time zones away?

Join Maui's finest as they investigate the most controversial-and dangerous-cases of their careers.
