About this ebook

The first five Professor Molly mysteries, plus a bonus!
This box set presents the first five Professor Molly mysteries in the order in which they are meant to be read and enjoyed:
The Musubi Murder: After a brutal year on the academic job market, Professor Molly Barda finally lands a teaching job. In Hawaii!
But chronically-underfunded Mahina State University isn't exactly paradise. After yet another round of budget cuts, Mahina State finally gets some sweet news: Jimmy Tanaka, founder of the Merrie Musubis lunch shop empire, announces a massive donation to the College of Commerce. But Tanaka goes missing before he can write the check, and Professor Molly is ordered to track down the missing mogul. As she uncovers festering feuds and fresh scandals, Molly realizes that there's something rotten in Mahina--and she may have bitten off more than she can chew.
The Case of the Defunct Adjunct: Follow your dreams, and you'll never work a day in your life. Because that field's not hiring.
Professor Molly Barda and her best friend Dr. Emma Nakamura brace themselves for yet another tedious faculty retreat at Mahina State University ("Where Your Future Begins Tomorrow"). But when the lecherous Kent Lovely, Mahina State's one-man hostile work environment, collapses face-first into his haupia cheesecake, the afternoon goes from dull to disastrous. Now Molly must fight to keep an innocent out of prison—and herself off the unemployment line.
The Cursed Canoe: Seven women on the crew. Six seats in the canoe. Paddlers would kill to compete in the big race. What could go wrong?
Professor Molly is pulled into investigating a mysterious paddling accident in Mahina Bay, and realizes it isn't just business majors who cheat to get what they want. Whether it's moving up in the college rankings, getting a seat in the Labor Day canoe race, or winning in the game of love, someone will do whatever it takes to sink the competition.
The Black Thumb: It should have been a lovely summer afternoon.
When a violent death disrupts the Monthly meeting of the Pua Kala Garden society, Professor Molly Barda has no intention of playing amateur detective. But Molly's not just a witness–the victim is Molly's house guest and grad-school frenemy. And Molly quickly finds to her dismay that her interest in the murder of the stylish and self-centered Melanie Polewski is more than just…academic.
The Invasive Species: It's not nice to fool Mother Nature.
On the way to interviewing a local farmer, Professor Molly stumbles onto a dismembered body in a field of genetically modified papayas. Molly is sure the murder has nothing to do with her new research project...until a second gruesome death rocks Mahina's tight farming community, and Molly's administration drops her research like a hot potato. If Molly can't root out the bad apples, not only will her tenure case go pear-shaped...she might end up pushing up daisies.
BONUS CONTENT: Alice Mongoose and Alistair Rat in Hawaii
In The Invasive Species, we are introduced to Alice Mongoose and Alistair Rat, protagonists of the classic children's picture book series. When Alice Mongoose sails from India to a sugar plantation on the Big Island of Hawaii, she is shocked to learn what her new job entails. She decides instead to strike out on her own. When she meets the gentle and dapper Alistair Rat, she knows that she has found a friend in her new Hawaiian home. The Alice Mongoose and Alistair Rat stories are classic tales of adventure, resilience, and friendship, beloved to this day by children of all ages.
