Sunrise on the Evil and the Good
About
Before Pearl Harbor, the island was already at war.
Hawaii, 1940. Paradise has teeth.
When engineer Kana Hale returns home to Oahu, he expects sun, surf, and a slow reconnection with the life he left behind. But a cryptic favor from an old friend plunges him into a deadly game of espionage, betrayal, and wartime secrets. A stolen notebook holds dangerous information—and everyone wants it.
Framed for murder and hunted by the FBI, Kana's only hope lies with Alani, the woman he loved and lost. But trusting her again may be his biggest gamble yet.
As foreign spies circle, old loyalties fray, and the island teeters on the edge of war, Kana must face the darkness lurking beneath Hawaii’s postcard-perfect surface.
Taut, atmospheric, and richly evocative, Sunrise on the Evil and the Good is a noir-soaked historical thriller that explores the costs of patriotism, identity, and love at the dawn of global conflict.
