I loved everything about this piece of historical fiction. Lana returns to her home after a long estrangement from her father, Jack. Her father is dying, and as she returns, the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor and life in Hawaii changes instantly. She is a day late to see her father, but there in time to see his German neighbors arrested. On the island, many Japanese and Germans, as well as Italians, are arrested without any other reason than their nationality. Lana takes the two daughters, Coco and Marie, to safety at a house her father built in a remote section of the island. In addition, she hides her father’s friend, more Hawaiian than Japanese,but at risk of arrest. It is an important work with ramifications for today’s political situation, while telling an engrossing story of a strong woman and her actions in the face of danger. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.
