The Last Aloha
Gaellen Quinn
2010 BAIPA Award Winner: Best Historical Fiction
A vivid portrait of the final days of the Hawaiian monarchy, when descendants of American missionaries toppled the throne. Suppressed for a century, this story is a little-known part of American history. We view it through the eyes of Laura Jennings, who lives in 1886 San Francisco—a city of bonanza millionaires, newfangled cable cars, bustles, and bowler hats. As Laura is being fitted for her wedding gown, a tragic accident kills her father and her fiancé. Suddenly alone in the world, Laura goes to Hawaii to live with relatives she’s never met, little knowing that her destiny will become intertwined with those of Hawaii’s last great sovereigns.
