SHAKETOWN
A Tale of Old San Francisco

A naive servant girl becomes a wealthy and notorious madam; a gentle Chinese scholar is fated to kill for the gangs of Chinatown. Their story is a tale of love, longing and deceit set amidst the glittering parlors and tattered slums of Victorian San Francisco. Kidnapping, murder, family intrigues, true love and, of course, an earthquake--this story has it all. The book is currently with an agent in New York, and the sequel is being researched.

ALOHA!

This inexpensive and sturdy pocket-size book covers all the highlights: best places to see, eat and stay on both islands with maps included. Side trips to Moloka'i and Lana'i are an added feature.
