Ahhh . . . yes—Kimo! He’s Leilani’s ten-year-old brother who really, really wants to be part of the detective club. Kimo drives Leilani bonkers while trying to prove he’s a great investigator. Mostly he just manages to annoy his teenage sister and her friends.
What do you think might happen? Will Kimo succeed? Or will he just get himself into even more trouble? Will he spoil things for Leilani? In each book, Kimo tries to prove himself to be a great detective and deserves to be a real member of The Hawaiian Island Detective Club. Will Leilani give him a chance?
And then there’s Kainoa, Leilani’s surfing buddy and instructor since she was eight. He’s the 16-year-old older brother of Leilani’s best friend, Maile. And—you guessed it—Leilani has a crush on him. But then something happens and Leilani fears she may have lost “the love of her life” and her surfing buddy forever.
Ahhh . . . the angst of being a young teen. Remember those days? I sure do.
Join me on Thursdays as I go through the alphabet, giving you little snippets of words from Books 1-3 of The Hawaiian Island Detective Club. It’s the ABCs OF THE HIDC!
Aloha, and Mahalo for visiting!
