Coming Soon: Aloha, Lady Blue
The Mystery of Kahala Road | by Charley Memminger
Coming in November, the paperback release of Charley Memminger's detective novel,
Aloha, Lady Blue: The Mystery of Kahala Road. Meet Charley at his book signing event, benefiting the Hawaii Children's Foundation (see sidebar).

Stryker McBride is a former organized crime reporter living in self-imposed exile on a houseboat in Kaneohe Bay, after being shot by a rogue cop during an investigation. At the request of a gorgeous high-school acquaintance, McBride finds himself swept up in the mysterious death of the beauty queen's wealthy grandfather, who was found face down in a taro patch. McBride narrates Aloha, Lady Blue, introducing readers to a vibrant cast of characters, among them "the gods -- Lono and Kane, McBride's German Shepherds -- and an assortment of gruff cops, local gangsters and salty sailors.

In honor of Lono and Kane -- who, we discover, handle most of McBride's "job" as night watchman for the local yacht club -- author Charley Memminger has pledged to donate all of his paperback royalties from Aloha, Lady Blue to the Hawaiian Humane Society.

"Thoroughly authentic and entertaining. A fast and furious ride with unforgettable characters, hot Hawaiian nights and a dark and dirty secret that could scar the face of America's paradise."
-Andre and Maria Jacquemetton, executive producers, "Mad Men"

 
INTRODUCING MANA: A JOURNAL OF HAWAII
Coming Soon: A keepsake presentation from the MANA Magazine team
Introducing MANA: A Journal of Hawai'i, a very special book devoted to the culture and community of the Hawaiian people. This elegant and meaningful hardcover volume, to be released in December 2015, is written, photographed and produced by the creative team behind MANA Magazine, carrying forward MANA's mission of informing and inspiring the people of Hawai'i.

From 2012 through 2015, MANA Magazine served as an independent voice for the Hawaiian community and all who hold Hawai'i dear. Its in-depth exploration of Hawaiian heritage, language, arts and issues shared opinions and ideas in provocative fashion, while helping create a deeper sense of community throughout the Islands and beyond.

MANA: A Journal of Hawai'i represents the next step in this evolution. From cover to cover, the book offers the best of MANA Magazine -- its most insightful articles, its most inspiring photographs. A portion of the book's sales revenues will go to support 'Ahahui Haku Mo'olelo, the Native Hawaiian Journalists Association. Like its predecessor magazine published under the banner "engaging Hawaiian hearts," MANA: A Journal of Hawai'i will continue the dialogue on important issues impacting the Hawaiian community-from health to governance, education to sustainability-both today and in the years to come.

MANA: A Journal of Hawai'i will be retail-priced at $32.95 when it debuts in December. Pre-order now at a special $25 price, with free shipping, at our online store.
