Before he was a detective, Kimo Kanapaʻaka was chasing waves. On Oahu’s North Shore, twenty-three-year-old Kimo lives for surf—early mornings, big swells, and the freedom of the ocean. When a mainland rookie named Jesse Dugan asks for guidance, Kimo reluctantly takes him under his wing, recognizing something familiar in the kid’s hunger to belong. But when Jesse wipes out at Waimea and doesn’t come back up, the tragedy is written off as a rookie mistake. Kimo isn’t so sure. The leash Jesse trusted doesn’t look broken. It looks cut.

When a young mother is found murdered in what looks like a home invasion, the case seems straightforward—until Kimo and his partner Ray Donne begin pulling at the threads. Beneath the surface lies a tangled web of family loyalties, business dealings, and secrets someone is willing to kill to protect.
