One-Eyed Paperboy

Believing he's finally found true love at last, Darby can't quite understand why his frustrating, often lopsided relationship suddenly goes sour with Gretchen, the lovely but mysterious lady upstairs who has been concealing a chilling, unspeakable horror most of her life. Ultimately rejected by Gretchen, Darby shifts his amorous, somewhat vengeful feelings toward Amber-Gretchen's precocious niece-after learning the beautiful tennis playing coed is visiting her wealthy great aunt on Hawaii's Big Island for the summer.

From the very beginning of Darby's moronically contrived "Amber Introduction Plan"-if one can accept "kidnapping" as a perfectly normal approach to meeting someone new-everything goes wrong. And things just get a lot worse as Amber and her loopy, nitwit abductor, Darby, suddenly find themselves battling for their lives-and each other-as they struggle to survive one of the worst cataclysms to ravage the Hilo coastline in years
