New Direction

Alex walked to the spot on the river front.

She stopped and looked across the river at Covington.

She remembered that dark early morning that she and Trey had investigated their first case.

She had been as green at being a detective that she could have been. 

She had graduated from law school.

Tried her hand as a lawyer in her mother's law firm.

She quit and accepted a job as a deputy in a small town. 

The work and environment fit what she wanted to do. 

Then her boss had suggested that she interview for a role in the Cincinnati detective unit.

The Black Chief of detectives doing the recruiting made her an offer.

She moved to Cincinnati and as a lead detective in his department. 

No one would be a partner.

The Chief found her a war hero partner.

He turned out to be an ideal partner to her.

When she found Aurea on her front porch the world changed.

The New replaced what was !

Yet the Old shaped the New in the most rewarding Ways !!

She had the ability to start a new business.

She bought the marina where her father kept the fishing boat that the two of them had spent many hours in.

Aurea loved her new grandparents.

Matt her partner was excited about running the marina.

Alex knew that she had made the right decision.

She was ready for the new direction that her life was taking her.
