About this audiobook
The attack on Pearl Harbor changes everything for Lana Hitchcock. Arriving home on the Big Island too late to reconcile with her estranged father, she is left alone to untangle the clues of his legacy, which lead to a secret property tucked away in the remote rain forest of Kilauea volcano. When the government starts taking away her neighbors as suspected sympathizers, Lana shelters two young German girls, a Japanese fisherman and his son. As tensions escalate, they are forced into hiding—only to discover the hideaway house is not what they expected.
When a detainment camp is established nearby, Lana struggles to keep the secrets of those in her care. Trust could have dangerous consequences. As their lives weave together, Lana begins to understand the true meaning of family and how the bonds of love carry us through the worst times.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I enjoyed the era it was written in, the inclusion of so many different types of characters, and it was written about how different people were forced to endure the bombing of Pearl Harbor and how they coped with its aftermath.
I must say the last couple of chapters or so, I was not so thrilled with. It left me empty. With everything the characters went through; just too
empty for me. I can’t explain what I mean, except to say I was thinking it was a let down to everything else that happened….?
