Itzamná, The Maya God of the Sky and of Writing...

Vector
My interest in the emerging biotechnology field, thrillers and martial arts led me to write this series set on Kaua'i, an island with a number of different cultures and micro-climates — in a word, a microcosm of the world. Vector was the first in the series. Originally published by a small press in New York called Bluejay, it was later picked up by St. Martins, America's leading publisher of rare books.

Molecular biologist and part-time martial arts instructor Chazz Koenig has settled on the island of Kauai to do a little desultory research and nurse the wounds of an apparently failed marriage. Shortly after his arrival the serenity of the island is marred by a number of mysterious deaths — a diver, a drug addict, an old woman, a young couple, and when Chazz meets Lieutenant Cobb Takamura he is asked to aid in the investigation..

Toxin
A wealthy developer is shot down while jogging in the coconut grove outside a plush Kauai hotel. Shortly thereafter a satellite falls from orbit carrying an unknown toxin. When it crashes on the island several people are taken ill. Lieutenant Cobb Takamura, investigating the murder, calls on his friend Chazz Koenig to help with the toxin. Chazz is a molecular biologist, and has helped Cobb in the past. As the investigation begins to delve deeper into events questions arise: whose satellite was it that crashed? What was the toxin on board, and was it man-made? And, most baffling of all, was there a connection between the murder and the satellite.

Venom
A ship drifts aground on the island of Kauai. On it Lieutenant Takamura's wife Kimiko, who was by herself enjoying a couple of hours of peace and solitude, discovers seven bodies, all apparently poisoned somehow. Takamura calls his friend Chazz Koenig back from the Big Island, where he hs been doing some biological research. It is not clear whether it was a poison gas, a disease, or something more sinister that killed the crew of the Ocean Mother, an environmental vessel just back from Polynesia, where it had been protesting the French nuclear testing program.
