Matthew King was once considered one of the wealthiest men in Hawaii. His missionary ancestors who came to the islands were financially and culturally progressive—one even married a Hawaiian princess, making Matt a royal descendant and one of the state's largest landowners. But now his luck has changed. His two daughters are out of control—10-year-old Scottie has a smart-ass attitude and a desperate need for attention, and 17-year-old Alex, a former model, is recovering from drug addiction. His high-maintenance wife and descendant, Joanie, lies in a coma after a boating accident and will soon be taken from life support. The King family can hardly picture life without their charismatic mother, but as they come to terms with this tragedy, their sadness is mixed with a sense of freedom that shames them—and spurs them into surprising actions.
