Alpha Alpine: An Emma Lord Mystery (Emma Lord Returns Book 1)

Emma Lord is back and better than ever! This time around, the amateur detective partners up with a rookie sleuth to investigate a string of murders in her beloved Alpine, Washington.

For a small town nestled in the Cascade Mountainsâ€™ foothills, picturesque Alpine provides more than enough headlines to fill the pages of editor and publisher Emma Lordâ€™s Alpine Advocate. The Labor Day editionâ€™s lead story features controversial timber baron Jack Blackwellâ€™s scheme to become Skykomish county manager. But the recent strangling deaths of two young women are all anyone can talk about.

After a third body is found, Emmaâ€™s husband, Sheriff Milo Dodge, suspects thereâ€™s a serial killer in their midst. The latest victim is the sister of a dashing newcomer rumored to be working for Blackwell. â€œBlack Jack,â€ as heâ€™s known to his non-admirers, has a long-standing rivalry with Milo. To discover if thereâ€™s any connection between the mogul and the murders, Emma recruits the Advocateâ€™s receptionist, Alison Lindahl, to do a little digging.Â

Still recovering from a recent breakup, Alison welcomes the distraction. But when the investigation puts the eager protÃ©gÃ© in the line of fire, Emma worries that the cub reporterâ€™s career will be over before it even begins.

Praise for Alpha Alpine

â€œPart of what makes this series so great is touching base with the characters, returning to the idyllic locale of Alpine, and spying on all the drama and mayhem.Â . . .

â€œFull of drama and action . . . I really tried to slow down and savor this book, but that was almost impossible. . . . I am already anxiously waiting for the next Emma Lord Mystery.â€â€”Escape with Dollycas

â€œI always know I can count on a good read with a Mary Daheim book.â€â€”My Merri Way
