The Lei Crime Series: Seal of a Monk (Kindle Worlds Novella)

The ancient jungles of Kauai provide the perfect setting for self-discovery.

Despite the terror she experienced on her last trip, Lainey Lee returns to Hawaii to manage a silent meditation course on the Coconut Coast. Twenty-five women are under her care for ten days in a beautiful and remote location. Lainey expects to find inner peace, but four days into the course, one of the meditators disappears without a trace.

Did the girl leave of her own free will, or was she lured away by a strange cult? Lainey is frantic to answer these questions. As her desperation grows, she finds help from an unexpected sourceâ€”a retired Navy SEAL named Maximillian Scott.

Now, Lainey has two mysteries to solve: what happened to the missing girl and the case of her own heart. Can she ever trust a man again?

Q & A with Eden Baylee

Q: Tell us how your story is connected to Toby Nealâ€™s Lei Crime novels.

EB: SEAL of a Monk runs parallel to Toby Nealâ€™s second book, Torch Ginger.

The themes I explore from Tobyâ€™s book are: a missing person, a cult, search and rescue, and romance.

Q: Is SEAL of a Monk a sequel to A Snake in Paradise, your first book for the Lei Crime series?

EB: No, the book stands on its own though it does see the return of protagonist, Lainey Lee. This time it takes place on the oldest of the islands in Hawaiiâ€”Kauai. If you want to know about Laineyâ€™s affinity for Hawaii, then I recommend you read A Snake in Paradise first.

In SEAL of a Monk, I introduce Maximillian Scott, a retired Navy SEAL. You also learn more about Harumi Ito, the tebori master who is Laineyâ€™s best friend.

Q: Does your Lei Crime series story have any connection to your usual writing?

EB: I write in multiple genres, and my first novel was a mystery suspense called Stranger at Sunset. To this end, writing in the same genre for the Lei Crime series has honed my skills as I work on my next book.
