SOMEWHERE
WITHIN THE HOUSE
New
York : David McKay, 1973.

| Ellen
Sedgwick is bound for Hawaii in a quest to rescue her fiance's good name.
She befriends folks from both sides of the political situation that is
arising. On the one hand, the loyalists who want Hawaii preserved for the
Hawaiians and want the Kingdom to remain, and the other, the clan of plantation
owners who export profits along with pineapples. She believes that her
fiance was on to corruption or spying and was killed by one of the sides,
but which one? Or did he really commit suicide? This mystery is interesting
because it's set on an island we think of as idyllic and peaceful with
folks of one mind. This novel explores just how diverse the special interest
groups are on Hawaii and what was going on before Hawaii was taken as a
territory. |
