Kill Fee's most exciting character!

Meet Bilgewater

Kill Fee’s most exciting character

Along come Bilgewater, not a real person, although you might assign him that role. He is an Indian Hill Mynah bird, with a very naughty vocabulary and a penchant for calling people by the wrong name.  He’s my main character’s pet in my upcoming release, Kill Fee, out in October.  I can’t wait to introduce you to the bad beaked bird, the foul-mouthed fowl, a malevolent Mynah and crime fighter of a different nature. He’s described by Ogden Nash in his poem, “The Grackle,” thusly:

“His heart is black, his eye is yellow, He bullies more attractive birds With hoodlum deeds and vulgar words,”

MuseItUp Publishing: Pre-order

Back Cover:

Laura, descended from the Tahitian princess Kura, explores her heritage to find answers to her unusual past. Why did her birth father, the last Polynesian navigator, insist she be raised by her American family? What secret threatens her Tahitian bloodlines?

Ian, an English journalist, falls for the lovely Laura the first day she arrives on Tahiti. During her quest, he’s by her side when dejá vu overtakes her, and they are plunged into 1769, Captain Cook’s first landing date on the islands.

Chased by the demons of her ancestor’s and fearing for her sanity, Laura and Ian work together to resolve the inequities in her past

Excerpt: Laura confronts her adoptive father about not telling her the truth: that she was related to a proud Polynesian family:

“Who...who is my birth father?” She couldn’t believe she was asking such a question. Up until this moment she hadn’t doubted her  standard, though incomplete, adoption story.

“He was one of the last of the Tahitian navigators living on the Cook Islands. He came to Tahiti on a longboat to practice for the anniversary of the transit of Venus with its big fertility rite. I guess he got what he came for: your innocent, impressionable mother.”

“If he and Anna had an affair, how did I get back here?”

“He brought you.”

“By boat?”

“He flew with you. He promised Anna he would bring you home if anything happened to her. When she died, he bought a plane ticket and returned you to our family. It was the only honorable thing he ever did.”

“How did she die—exactly?”

“She was killed in an accident while they were in Hawaii. Teokotai didn’t have a lot of details. Your mother was headstrong, swam alone—surfed alone. He said little about Anna’s last days. He might have felt guilty. He gave me her things, a box to pass on to you when you became twenty-one—”

“Dad, I’ve been twenty-one—”

“I decided not to tell you.”

“You decided!”
