After she is mugged in the parking garage and then almost killed en route to her aunt's house on the Big Island. Storm begins to wonder if her uncle was murdered. It appears that someone - a client, a family member, or a friend - believes that Storm, a close confidante of her uncle, knows something that they've already killed once to protect. She begins to investigate in order to defend herself and to avenge her beloved uncle's death. Storm is a strong and appealing character who still struggles with the aftermath of her mother's suicide when she was 12 and her feelings of isolation as it becomes apparent that her adoptive family has kept secrets from her. Vividly described settings - from Honolulu's Chinatown to the spectacular scenery of the Big Island - will entrance readers of this fast-paced debut, which effectively contrasts modern Hawaii with the lore of its past.\u003cbr\u003eNear Fine\u003cbr\u003eSoft cover\u003cbr\u003ePoisoned Pen Press\u003cbr\u003e2005\u003cbr\u003eScottsdale, AZ\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Werdz Quality Used Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51968054460696,"sku":"009606","price":22.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0728\/2747\/0104\/files\/B387B0E9-516F-4EF9-A8F0-9642CF32FE2E.jpg?v=1776535254","url":"https:\/\/werdzbooks.com\/products\/primitive-secrets-signed-atkinson-deborah-turrell","provider":"Werdz Quality Used  Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
