Why this must be read:
This bit sets the scene for the tragedy and drama to come:
Absently, Steve nodded, already his mind was drifting to other spheres. Once inside the apartment he smiled at the thought of the energetic Keoni foisted onto Danno's lap for a while. Probably a dangerous combination, he warned himself. Briskly, he went through his nightly routine: opened the lanai door, changed into casual clothes, then fixed a tall tumbler of iced juice. Then it was back through the living room where he grabbed the phone, went out to the lanai, propped his feet on a small table, and dialed a memorized number.
"Hello, Steve." It was a statement of certainty. The voice on the other end answered with cocky self-assurance sparked with humor.
"You sound awfully happy, Danno," he quipped, a bit puzzled, a bit annoyed at the tone of his colleague. "Am I paying you to vacation?"
On the other end, Dan Williams laughed. "We're not having that much fun," he responded. "I had a bet going with Sammy that you'd call before seven-thirty."
A voice in the background shouted, "Without Danny to slow things up, Five-0 can go home early."
"Funny, Sammy," Williams quipped, then to McGarrett said, "You're knocking off early every night, Steve. I hope the trend continues after I'm back, I could get used to a seven to seven job."
McGarrett laughed at the joke that was not far off the mark concerning their lengthy office hours. He also realized he was getting predictable. In the two weeks Williams had been sequestered with their witness Eddie Palama, McGarrett had quit the office earlier than usual each night to come home and make his evening check-in call to the safe house.
Palama was a local hood who had been double crossed by the drug runners he was working for. To get back at the criminals, Palama was turning over evidence to put away major drug lords between Hawaii and Asia and all points in between. Palama in turn would be granted immunity and new identity.
Already two attempts on Palama's life had failed. To insure his safety for the trial in two days, McGarrett had rooted Palama, Williams
This sets the scene, after introducing us to McGarrett's neighbors, for an emotional roller coaster. This long story is sweet, touching, scary, heartbreaking, fearful and circles the gamut of every possible emotion for both characters and the reader. I've read it many, many times and still keep constantly going back to it, surprised at varous developments and choking up even when I know what will happen next.
