Welcome to the Surfing Detective Series.  Here are selections from six Surfing Detective mysteries. These include the complete sketch of Kai Cooke’s first case, “The Deadbeat Dad,” and also excerpts from Murder on Moloka‘i, Wipeout!, Kula, Murder at Volcano House, and Hanging Ten in Paris. Together these six selections give readers an overview of the series and offer enough of each book to introduce the main characters, the case, and Kai’s approaching to solving it.  Surfing Detective Sampler, in other words, provides a tasting menu of sorts—a way to try each mystery without expanding the waistline or breaking the bank.  Bon appetite!
