    About this audiobook

    Rumored to hold more spirits than people, the remote tropical paradise To'aga frightens many Samoan locals-but not Detective Apelu Soifua. Reeling from the loss of his young daughter, Apelu retreats to the haunted island for a self-imposed exile. He spends his days drinking, trying to ignore the ghosts in his head, and receives few visitors other than a shamanistic recluse and a pair of dedicated marine biologists conducting research.

    But after a crew of surveyors arrives, Apelu makes a disturbing discovery: foreign investors plan to build a resort hotel on the coast, a project sure to destroy the To'aga coral reef and shatter the island's peaceful way of life. When tensions rise and someone-or something-commits a gruesome murder, Apelu must force himself out of retirement to solve the case. Can the heartbroken detective navigate both modern and mystical forces to find the killer and appease the angry spirits of To'aga, in this third book of the Jungle Beat Mystery series?
