Book Description
Now a major motion picture starring George Clooney and directed by Alexander Payne Fortunes have changed for the King family, descendants of Hawaiian royalty and one of the state’s largest landowners. Matthew King’s daughters—Scottie, a feisty ten-year-old, and Alex, a seventeen-year-old recovering drug addict—are out of control, and their charismatic, thrill-seeking mother, Joanie, lies in a coma after a boat-racing accident. She will soon be taken off life support. As Matt gathers his wife’s friends and family to say their final goodbyes, a difficult situation is made worse by the sudden discovery that there’s one person who hasn’t been told: the man with whom Joanie had been having an affair. Forced to examine what they owe not only to the living but to the dead, Matt, Scottie, and Alex take to the road to find Joanie’s lover, on a memorable journey that leads to unforeseen humor, growth, and profound revelations.

Tsuzuki and Hisoka travel to Okinawa on assignment to help fellow Guardian of Death Chidsuru find out just what is behind the Miyagi Inn's recent troubles. Is the Miyagi Inn really haunted, or is it all a vicious rumor spread by the wicked president of the neighboring resort hotel? Back in the Ministry of Hades, Watari convinces Tsuzuki to help test his new sex change potion. But something's wrong with the formula, and instead of turning into women, they turn into kids! The antidote calls for belladonna flower, but the Count's garden of poisonous plants has two varieties--red and black. Which is the right flower...and what will happen if they choose wrong?
