Killers, Liars, and Cowards: A Portrait of a Family
by Mary Jung
A reading of the novel Killers, Liars, and Cowards: A Portrait of a Family, which is about Kailani Kahale, who was born to save the earth from annihilation, her grandfather's mysterious vision foretelling her fate—at least that's what her family says. But how can she believe them when they're nothing but killers, liars, and cowards? Just in case, she lives off the grid on her property in the Hawaiian jungle, quietly tending to her bees, avoiding contact with the outside world. Everything changes when the FBI finds a body on her land, forcing her into hiding. To return home, she must confront the devil, a Texas lawyer named David Goddard; uncover the web of family lies; and find her true purpose. She just has to do it before the planet blows to bits.
