THERE IS A SERPENT IN PARADISE Ryan was a pilot, and a damn good one at that. Accepting an honorable discharge, he began a charter service in Hawaii where he thinks he has found peace in paradise- that is, until government agents approach him. A fission scientist has gone missing while on Maui, and they are sure the Third Reich is behind it. Confident of Ryan's abilities and his knowledge of the islands, they ask him to discover what happened. This is only the beginning of an adventure that would take Ryan across three islands, facing larger than life dangers and ruthless adversaries, ever racing towards the brink of a horrifying discovery that could turn the course of the war and change the face of freedom for the entire world
