"Imagine Jonathan Franzen with a Hawaiian flair, and you'll get the idea of this stunning family saga!"O, The Oprah Magazine
            The stirring story of a Hawaiian family caught between the remnants of a paradisiacal past and the wreckage of the American dream.

            Nainoa is seven years old when he falls off an excursion boat into the Pacific Ocean and is soon surrounded by several sharks. Everyone fears the worst, but the largest shark gently carries him back to his mother in its open mouth - a favour from the ancient Hawaiian gods, as all the bystanders affirm. Since this accident, Nainoa has become a celebrity in the town, but the joy of this gradually gives way to the harsh reality - a Hawaii that is being economically and culturally destroyed by the ruthless advance of capitalism. Nainoa's family is not one of the rich anyway, and when the sugar cane industry collapses, the financial problems grow. Eventually, Nainoa and his two siblings Dean and Kaui decide to move to the American mainland in order to gain some distance and go their own way. But Hawaii won't let them go, and Nainoa's battle with the ghosts of his past soon forces all three of them back home ....
