Synopsis

John Teschner's Project Namahana is “an enthralling tale of disappearances, deaths, dark secrets, and corporate evil” (Douglas Preston, #1 bestselling co-author of the Agent Pendergast series).

Nothing stays hidden forever...

Two men, unified by a string of disappearances and deaths, search for answers—and salvation—in the jungles of Kaua‘i. Together, they must navigate the overlapping and complicated lines between a close-knit community and the hated, but economically-necessary corporate farms—and the decades old secrets that bind them.

Project Namahana takes you from Midwestern, glass-walled, corporate offices over the Pacific and across the island of Kaua‘i; from seemingly idyllic beaches and mountainous inland jungles to the face of Mount Namahana; all the while, exploring the question of how corporate executives could be responsible for evil things without, presumably, being evil themselves.

Project Namahana By John Teschner I was excited to read an eco thriller and in the setting of my favorite Hawaiian island of Kauai. It was an interesting thriller with some few exciting twists that kept me engaged and turning those pages. Glad to have read from a new author to me.......more

Goodreads review by Jamele (BookswithJams) on August 07, 2022

This was a fascinating read, and I thought this eco-thriller was well done. It was a struggle to stay focused at times, and while I think the audiobook helped to do so, there were parts where it did seem to drag a bit. A story about corporate greed, there were some twists I did not see coming and th......more
