Books like The Big Kahuna by Janet Evanovich
Straight‑arrow FBI agent Kate O'Hare is a by‑the‑book investigator, while charming con‑man Nicholas Fox thrives on improvisation. Together they tackle high‑profile cases that ordinary agents can’t touch. Their latest assignment is the mysterious disappearance of a Silicon Valley billionaire nicknamed the Big Kahuna. With no willingness from the victim’s Instagram model wife or his shady Czech business partner to cooperate, the case hinges on the Kahuna’s estranged son living a carefree life in Hawaii. Kate and Nick go undercover as a married couple in Paia, Maui, blending with the local surf culture to get close to the boy and unravel a plot that threatens to claim the Kahuna’s life rather than his legacy.
