 The River Front

A runner, in his late thirties, lay dead in a pool of blood running out of his ear. His running shorts are pulled down and his penis has been staged on his abdomen with a pencil driven through it to hold it in place.

This is a first for the newly opened Cincinnati Waterfront park. She is faced with a "bad guy," but it is not the quick gun she needs but a very quick mind.

She has a Bachelor of science in Criminology and Law Enforcement and has earned a master's degree in Phycology. During her college years she became a black belt.

She spends three years as a detective in a small town. Then she lands a job in Cincinnati, Ohio.

One reason for her selection as a detective for the Cincinnati Detective division is that she is a Black female and the Chief of detectives, also Black, desires to integrate the all-white detective division. He recognizes Alex as an exceptional candidate.

Alex is thrilled with the possibility of being a detective in Cincinnati. It is a smaller city, but its murder rate is comparable to New York or Chicago.

The Chief hires Trey McGregor, a Marine veteran, a policeman in Milwaukee. Trey, trying to escape the depression that a combination of PTSD and several recent shootings in his precinct, accepts the offer. 

She is focused on becoming the super detective she always desired to be. And practices a daily routine that includes the gun range, bicycling, running, daily floor exercises and weight training.

The first murder has a bizarre twist that tests her capability, threatens her support, and makes Trey wonder if he has the right partner.

Her preparation and skill development pay off and she overcomes the killer. Trey assists her on the capture of the killer.

She becomes friends with Trey and his family.

The Chief gets recognized for stopping a serial killer. He becomes an Alex supporter.

Little does she know that future events will challenge her in all areas.
