Book Shout-Out: BROKEN FERNS by Toby Neal
I am so excited! The next book in crime diva Toby Neal’s Lei Crime series has been released! If you have read any of Toby’s other titles, then you know you’re in for a real treat!
The island of Oahu is warm breezes, skyscrapers and green mountains — but a daring young thief is out to make a statement, and Special Agent Lei Texeira’s new career is already on the line.
Broken Ferns
Lei Texeira has made a difficult transition from detective on Maui to the FBI on Oahu — and her first big case as an agent draws national media attention. With her typical jump-first, look-later style, she pursues her quarry from Oahu to the outer islands, rousing old conflicts and new heartbreak.
