In Toby Neal's Torch Ginger, the 2nd installment in the Lei Crime mystery series, this new caper is so dark and twisted that would keep you on your feet. It all started for Lei, who had transferred to the island of Kaua`i and is new to the island. She receive a call about a robbery case that had later spiraled out of control case on the island of Kaua`i as the newest detective of the HPD. She's new to the island and received a call about a robbery. From there, it spiraled out of control when she finds a human bone and discovered a dozen missing people related to a cult. That's when she meets Alika Wolcott, while she's torn and deals with her mixed feelings with her former fiancé and her feelings for Alika. She tried to put him past her, but she can't help it. She also deals with the return of her father being released in prison, and as they bond, he joins a halfway house for rehabilitation. With all of this swirled around her, Lei goes undercover when the FBI joins in to take over the reins in the case. And the closer she gets to knowing the truth, the more dangerous it would be to take down the cult leader with her own life in the end.
This was a fantastic second book in the series. I remembered I read and loved Blood Ginger a few years ago. I cared about Lei on how she would deal with her feelings for two men and how she would handle her father's return and working on a day job. I loved how she took the initiative and became her own person. Keiki is a cute dog. I've thought Alika might be a perfect match for her, but things turned out differently late in the end. I loved the Hawaiian backdrop of Kaua'i and how the scenic settings pop for the mesmerizing locations. The theme is to follow your heart and don't be misled by others.
If you love heart-stopping action, plenty of intense drama, lots of suspense and majestic mystery, check out Torch Ginger today!
