Local author Victoria Nalani Kneubuhl joins us in a discussion about her book “Murder Casts A Shadow,” the first of a Hawaii mystery trilogy. The discussion will be hosted by Civil Beat’s audio reporter, Claire Caulfield.

Summary from da Shop’s site:

“New Year’s Eve, 1934. While Honolulu celebrates with champagne and fireworks, someone is making away with the Bishop Museum’s portrait of King Kalakaua and its curator. A series of brutal murders follows, and an unlikely pair, newspaper reporter Mina Beckwith and visiting playwright Ned Manusia, find themselves investigating a twisted trail of clues in an attempt to recover the painting and uncover the killer.”
