Hard Ticket to Hawaii: The Novelization: 2

Taryn Foster thought life on Molokai would be simple: fly cargo runs by day, unwind on the beach by night. But working alongside federal agent Donna Hamilton means trouble is never far, especially when a routine delivery drops them into the middle of a violent conspiracy involving diamond smugglers, cartel assassins, and a genetically altered killer snake.As the bodies start piling up, Donna and Taryn join forces with a rogue's gallery of allies: Edy St. James, a sharp-witted bar owner with a mysterious past; Jade, a surfer-sensei with deadly hands; and Rowdy Abilene, an agency wild card with a rocket launcher in one hand and a comeback line in the other. He also happens to be the cousin of Cody Abilene, whose exploits aboard the Malibu Express are just the beginning of the family legend.Together, they'll take the fight from the sands of Molokai to the high-rises of Honolulu, dodging bullets, blowing up helicopters, and maybe, just maybe, getting out with their lives.Brad Carter (Virus: Hell of the Living Dead, Rats: Night of Terror) brings his razor-edged pulp style to one of the most gloriously over-the-top cult classics of the VHS era. With snappy dialogue, grounded character work, and action that hits like a crossbow bolt to the chest, Carter doesn't just novelize Hard Ticket to Hawaii - he gives it teeth.
