A forbidden treasure awakens a centuries-old curse. An unexpected tropical threat. An ally hiding in plain sight. To celebrate Bradley’s high school graduation, O’Connor takes the Detest-A-Pest crew to Club Niho‘gula on the remote and beautiful Hawaiian island of Lanai. But trouble tends to follow O’Connor everywhere she goes... Strange creatures attack guests in broad daylight. The locals blame the attacks on the Legend of Pepehi Waapa – the boat killer. Someone or some thing has unleashed the curse behind it. Ignoring all warnings, O’Connor vows to find the culprit at any cost. But unseen by most, a clue lies just below the surface.

Because the evil forces at work could easily send them all to watery graves... Tentacle 2.0 is a fast-paced creature feature horror novel, book four of the popular Detest-A-Pest series.
