I'm so honored to offer my readers and other authors this fourth book in the Natalie Seachrist Hawaiian Mysteries, Aloha, Jeanne
Honolulu journalist Natalie Seachrist pursues an intriguing cold case of murder and larceny with the aid of her fleet-footed feline Miss Una, life partner private detective Ke`oni Hewitt, and his former partner, Lt. John Dias of the Honolulu Police Department. Was the murder of a gentle Buddhist minister at her altar and the ingenious theft of an ancient statue of the Shakyamuni Buddha prompted by religious zealousness or simple greed? An international auction, estate sale, pan-Pacific history and Buddhism, conjoin with the distinctive scenery, food, and multiculturalism of all of the Natalie Seachrist Hawaiian Mysteries. As Natalie and her team pursue one of the last haunting cases faced by Ke`oni, the slim facts and Natalie’s complex visions lead them on a perplexing journey.

Set in the lush environs of Hawaiʻi, the award-winning Natalie Seachrist Hawaiian Mysteries offer puzzling deaths, snippets of pan-Pacific history, and aspects of multicultural Island life. Prescient visions drive the crime solving of Natalie and her companions: Her twin Nathan, a psychologist; Miss Una, Natalie’s silent but fleet-footed tortoise shell feline companion; private investigator Keʻoni Hewitt, and his former partner Lieutenant John Dias of the Honolulu Police Department. While readers do not have to read the stories in sequence, I offer a layering of unresolved details and sub-themes and mini-mysteries that are unveiled through the series.
The Natalie Seachrist Hawaiian Mystery Series is published by Artemesia Publishing. Each of the books can be ordered easily through Amazon, Amazon US, Amazon AU, Amazon CA, Amazon IN, Apple, Baker and Taylor, Barnes & Noble, Follett, Mackin, Midpoint, Rakuten Overdrive, Title Wave, and other distributors.

2019 NEW MEXICO/ARIZONA BOOK AWARDS Winner, Fiction-Adventure-Drama
Finalist- Mystery Crime & Cover Design-Fiction
After an absence of twenty years, I visited my hometown of Portland, Oregon. It was amazing to explore the many things that had changed...and those that remained the same! The City of Roses is noted for Douglas fir trees and I can report that those planted in my youth are now huge!
I dropped in at the fiftieth reunion of my 1968 graduating class of Woodrow Wilson High School. As may be expected, I did not recognize anyone, but was delighted to share stories and chocolate covered macadamia nut candy at the gathering. The following week, I had the opportunity to share an overview of my work as an author and give an assignment to a couple of classes of creative writing students at Wilson High. Sadly the door to the stage I had loved so much was locked, but I was delighted to see that a small performance stage had been erected in the drama room.
Most gratifying was the long overdue meeting with my friend and Editor Viki Gillespie! She has smoothed out so many aspects of Natalie's adventures in murder and mayhem and it was wonderful to have her join me in addressing a joint meeting of the American Association of University Women mystery book clubs in the Portland area.
