This week on Crime Wave: Tori Eldridge has a new book! A new series! Yay! KAUA‘I STORM launches a dynamite new leading lady. After ten years as a national park ranger in Oregon, Makalani Pahukula returns to Kaua‘i for her grandmother's birthday. When she reaches the family homestead, she finds a bickering family and news that two cousins have gone missing. Makalani hopes they just ran off, not realizing the worry they've caused. But when hunters find a dead body in the forest, Makalani's search for her cousins grows desperate as she attempts to solve a mystery that poses a greater risk than anyone imagines—a risk to her homeland, Hawai‘i, and the family she loves. https://torieldridge.com/ #podcast #author #interview #authors #CrimeWavePodcast #authorsontheair #podcast #podcaster #authors #authorsofig #authorsofinstagram #authorinterview #writingcommunity #suspensebooks #authorssupportingauthors #thrillerbooks #suspense #wip #writers#writersinspiration #bookrecommendations #bookaddict #bookaddicted #bookaddiction #bibliophile #read #amreading #lovetoread #BonnarSpring #BonnarSpringBooks #bookouture #thrillers #ToriEldridge #Kaua‘iStorm

On today's 113th Episode of The Thriller Zone, we celebrate 2022 with THE DAVE & TAMMY TOP 10 YEAR END EXTRAVAGANZA!Today's show is extra fun because I get to spend it with my beautiful and talented wife, Tammy. By the way, it just so happens we'll be celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary tomorrow; so, there's an extra reason to celebrate.Our show will highlight some of the very best entertainment we've enjoyed this past year. That includes our “Top 10 Favorite Books, TV Series and Movies of '22." And before you get butt-hurt you didn't make the list, no need to worry because many of the 50-to-60 (or so) guests this past year didn't make it either. I say 50 to 60 only because there were times I hosted 2 episodes a week, while at others, there may have been only one. Either way, there's plenty of entertainment to go around, so let's have FUN!Also, while Tammy and I certainly have different tastes, we share a good many favorites, mainly because we devour so much entertainment together on any day, night or weekend.There are so many people to thank for making this show possible, mainly because YOU, my faithful listener and/or viewer. Without YOU there on the other end of this microphone, well, frankly, I'd just be talking to myself.

Ep. 248: Tori Eldridge is a Honolulu-born writer who challenges perspective and empowers the spirit. Her debut novel, The Ninja Daughter, is the first book in the Lily Wong series and was inspired by her debut short story featured in Suspense Magazine’s Best of 2014. Other short stories have been published in several anthologies, and her screenplay The Gift earned a semi-finalist place for the prestigious Academy Nicholl Fellowship. Tori is of Hawaiian, Chinese, Norwegian descent and graduated from Punahou School with classmate Barack Obama. She holds a fifth-degree black belt in To-Shin Do Ninjutsu and has traveled the USA teaching seminars on the ninja arts, weapons, and women’s self-protection. Tori has performed under her maiden name (Tori Brenno) as an actress, singer, dancer on Broadway, television, and film. The cultural diversity in Tori’s upcoming novel, The Ninja Daughter, stems from her own multi-cultural heritage—a Norwegian father from North Dakota and a Chinese-Hawaiian mother from Maui who met, married, and raised Tori’s sisters in Japan. This unusual family melting pot, combined with the amalgamation of Asian-Pacific Islander traditions that make up modern Hawaiian culture, gives Tori a unique perception, deep fascination, and an inclusive appreciation for world culture.​ For more on Tori, please see her website: https://torieldridge.com/ For more on host, Alex Barnett, please check out his website: www.alexbarnettcomic.com or visit him on Facebook (www.facebook.com/alexbarnettcomic) or on Twitter at @barnettcomic To subscribe to the Multiracial Family Man, please click here: MULTIRACIAL FAMILY MAN PODCAST Huge shout out to our "Super-Duper Supporters" Elizabeth A.

After a wildly success debut at Bouchercon 2019, Tori takes a deep breath to stop by and discuss her highly acclaimed and starred new thriller THE NINJA DAUGHTER. Tori Eldridge is a Honolulu-born writer who challenges perspective and empowers the spirit.

ABOUT THE NINJA DAUGHTER: After her sister is raped and murdered, Lily Wong dedicates her life and ninja skills to the protection of women. But her mission is complicated. Not only does she live above the Chinese restaurant owned by her Norwegian father and inspired by the recipes of her Chinese mother, but she has to hide her true self from her Hong Kong tiger mom who is already disappointed in her daughter's less than feminine ways, and who would be horrified to know what she had become. But when a woman and her son she escorted safely to an abused women’s shelter return home to dangerous consequences, Lily is forced to not only confront her family and her past, but team up with a mysterious—and very lethal—stranger to rescue them. @Copyrighted.
