Daughter of Moloka'i by Alan Brennert

I loved Brennert's previous 2 books, Moloks'i and Honolulu. Not so impressed with this one, which continues the story with the daughter of the main character in Moloka'i, who was confined to the leper colony on Kalaupapa. She was forced to give up her daughter to a Catholic orphanage back on O'ahu, and it follows her life as a precocious child, then being adopted, and through adulthood. Much of the story covers life in a Japanese-American concentration camp. Not sure why I didn't rave over this one. It's okay.
