    This was a fun fast pace read! I read the others and loved those! Not sure exactly what the person who left the one * prob was- I think they were just confused.

    Hawaii - Kate - and a couple of natives....

    Kate's run from Alaska to Hawaii. She's scared and heartbroken and she barely steps foot outside. But as a shaman had predicted, she's got "bad spirits" and trouble finds her anyway. This time it's not the drug lord, rather it's some Hawiians bent on returning to the old ways. Old ways that include human sacrifice...

    As always, Ms. Berkom delivers a well written enjoyable story that's impossible to put down. I just love Kate, she's always doing the unexpected and that's what keeps her alive.

    Kate Jones Spells Danger!

    Kate is in danger once again. This time, however, it's not what you think. Ms. Berkom has once again pulled me into the world of Kate Jones for mystery, danger, and the rush of knowing you're running for your life.

    She surprises me, however, with the slight twist she threw into the is story. Although Salazar or his men didn't make an appearance in this story, Kate was still running for her life.

    I can appreciate her descriptions of the beautiful surroundings in Hawaii, knowing she has recently visited this heaven on earth. Therefore, every sight, smell, and taste that she described, made me feel as if I were there with Kate.

    But she threw me off the trail at the end, and I was not expecting the unexpected. The ultimate betrayal. I was blinded by her friend's kindness, up until the very end.

    I cannot wait until the next Kate Jones story is released. These little books for me are very much a guilty pleasure and I have enjoyed each one immensely.

    Extremely short.

    Seems to be part of a series, with no hints as to the titles of the preceding books. Very, very short. Boring and confusing.
