Yen for Murder - Jeanne Burrows-Johnson - Bog

Honolulu journalist Natalie Seachrist experiences a vision of a Buddhist minister meditating at her altar. When a sharp sound crashes into her consciousness, Natalie watches as the woman falls to the floor. Later, while browsing through an antique auction brochure, Natalie and her life partner retired homicide detective Ke'oni Hewitt see a statue of an ancient Shakyamuni Buddha which he realizes was stolen during the now cold case that haunted the end of his career with the Honolulu Police Department. Soon Ke'oni and Natalie dive into the realm of international auctions and estate sales with the aid of Miss Una, Natalie's fleet-footed feline companion. What prompted these crimes of murder and larceny? Was it the chance to acquire riches, or religious zeal at the thought of possessing such a rare religious artifact? Can the conjoined cases be solved, or will the scanty evidence simply be returned to HPD's cold case files?
