About ALPHA:

On a rainy October morning, Mallory Petersen discovers the
corpse of her boyfriend, Bobby Furillo, in front of her office.
That same day, her landlord's mentally unstable daughter
disappears.
Thus begins another set of action-packed days for Des
Moines' most popular private detective and high kicking
martial artist.
Bucking police authority and continually attacked by unknown
adversaries, Mallory uncovers Bobby's devastating secrets.
Each new revelation puts Mallory in deeper peril from
powerful and dangerous people.
In her own inimitable style, Mallory juggles not only two cases
that will tax her physically, spiritually, and emotionally, but a
host of her usual 'odd' investigations, while never neglecting
her loyal taekwondo students.
And just what are those enigmatic RSVP cards that keep
showing up in Mallory's mail?
