An apparent overdose in Honolulu’s Chinatown is dismissed and blown off by everyone except one maverick Honolulu Cop. Haunted by both his experiences as a police officer and while a soldier in Iraq, this case and its female victim are something that he can’t let go of. To seek justice for this girl he never even knew, Detective Kalani Evans unravels a tangled web of the side of Honolulu the tourists don’t see. And the things he discovers on his journey begs an answer to the question, “Is Paradise Lost?”
