But a group of native Hawaiians claims that the sacred bones of an ancestral king are buried on the land the groom plans to sell, and one of them has vowed to do whatever it takes to stop him. Then Pele, the fire goddess, rocks the island with a series of earthquakes, and somebody shoves a member of the wedding party into a flow of molten lava.If Dinah and Claude Ann are to survive, they'll have to face down an angry goddess and a ruthless killer.
