Wilson McKenna has never written a bad check in his life. So how did he end up with $4,000 in returned checks from an island he’s never been to? He knows one thing, make that two, the bank wants their money, and he’s going to Kauai to track down the crook who's ruining his life. Before you can say “welcome to the island,” he’s almost arrested for impersonating himself, the woman who trashed his credit turns up dead, and McKenna feels like he’s up to his umi’umi’ in hot lava. McKenna quickly learns he’d better watch out because some temptations can get you killed. This book is dedicated to the victims of identity theft. I am one of you. I never expected to have someone steal my identity. I wondered why more could't be done to find the perpetrators. And I wanted justice.   For many years now we've traveled to Kauai to enjoy the tropical days, the laid-back lifestyle, and the joys of "island style." I hope Kauai Temptations gives you a taste of those experiences as well as a wild ride in McKenna's latest adventure. "More delicious than a Coconut Mocha Frap (and that's saying something), this rambunctious, character driven whodunit, kept me laughing out loud while I wallowed in the exotic locale beside the engaging amateur sleuth Wilson McKenna as he unraveled a timely case involving identity theft and murder.
