The woman, Danni, tells authorities she recognized her attacker: Phillipe DeBain. There is just one problem. DeBain turns up dead in the morgue, beaten to death before his body was dumped.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Four Hawaii detectives now grapple with an assault, a murder, and the disappearance of a quarter million dollars. How can they prove DeBain was Danni&rsquo;s attacker when he is already dead? Who wanted DeBain dead, and does it connect to his alleged attack on an innocent woman?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Before his death, DeBain admitted to getting rough with the women he dated. Danni was one of them. Revenge seems a likely motive, but in this investigation, nothing is what it appears. The case confounds even the most brilliant detectives, yet one thing is certain: a murderer is on the island and must be stopped.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>The Drowning<\/em> is a taut mystery set against the stunning backdrop of Honolulu, where paradise conceals dangerous secrets.
