In paradise, some secrets refuse to stay buried.

Security expert Sophie Smithson protects Hawaii from cyber threats, but she can't stop thieves from infiltrating Honolulu's museums. They leave no digital trace, disable every alarm, and vanish like ghosts—leaving only white plumerias and cryptic messages that suggest this is personal.

After losing her fiance in a volcanic accident, Sophie has worked hard to move on. She races to solve the heists while protecting her two young children from strange threats. When her estranged lover sends mysterious security contractor Jack Stone to help, Sophie's investigation takes a dangerous turn. Jack's tactical and physical expertise proves invaluable, but his knowledge of her family raises disturbing questions.

Sophie uncovers a conspiracy that reaches from Hawaii's cultural activists to international criminal networks. With the anniversary of her fiance’s death approaching and enemies closing in, she must navigate a web of deception where nothing is what it seems.

A pulse-pounding thriller about surveillance, deception, and the price of truth.
