Book excerpt: Quincy Burke is sent to Maui as a Department of Homeland Security. Her new computer program is on the high tech edge of combating terrorist activity. The Koreans have a mole in the NSA and they are after Quincy and her program. A powerful Mana is also after Quincy and the two sources direct her into a deadly trap. Another DHS chief is out to protect Quincy from the Koreans, but he can't protect her from a powerful Mana. Instead, he is led by the same force and another Maui myth may be created with the blessings of Pele and the wisdom of Ka'ahamanu.
