Terrorism in Paradise by Bill Fernandez
The early years of the Twentieth Century erupted into violence in the world as Communism-inspired laborers went on strike against the Capitalist exploitation of poor wages and bad living conditions. In Hawaii, firm control of workers by plantations was made easier by importing workers from different countries who could not communicate, the Divide and Conquer technique. In Hanapepe in 1924, Filipino strikers were met with rifles and sheriff deputies. Sixteen men died. This Grant Kingsley historical novel, Terrorism in Paradise, begins when the hero loses his father in an explosion. He and Detective Asing must find the killer before the Planters Association blames Japanese workers and demands a forced roundup of all of them. Local gang corruption, an angry jilted suiter of Grant's wife, car chases, an elite Hawaiian royalty group, and a dangerous object in his son's hands obstruct and distract Grant in the search for his father's killer.| SKU | Unavailable |
