A Model Murder is a fast-paced mystery that draws scary, sometimes hilarious, parallels between alpha males in strip clubs and law firms.  This first book in the Alicia Allen Investigates Trilogy introduces Alicia Allen, a 29-year-old London Anglo-Italian lawyer whose desire for  Pringles is matched only by her desire to solve crime. When her neighbor--a beautiful aspiring Australian model--is found raped and murdered before she can pick up her first paycheck at a sleazy "hostess"  club, Alicia ignites with such passion to bring the wrongdoer to justice, it would make even Portia envious. As her dangerous quest draws her into the dark world of exploitative  "hostess clubs," Alicia finds herself facing similar circumstances in a  new law firm where alpha males roam the halls in solicitor suits intimidating or stalking undervalued female coworkers. Worse luck, the deeper she delves into the investigation, the more her comfortable world  falls apart. Friends are viciously attacked...potential lovers may not be what they seem...clues pop up in Italian opera, Shakespeare, and a cat.  Alicia finds her willingness to risk her own life for the sake of justice is sorely put to the test in a world where Fate plays no small role.  The Alicia Allen Investigates crime novels are fast-paced suspense mysteries, full of twists and turns, following in the tradition of writers such as Nicci French and Sue Grafton.
