Greetings, Kali

Maureen Howard, a Portland, Maine, private investigator, grew up reading about Kinsey Millhone. This model of an independent, hardheaded woman inspired her to start her own business a generation later in trendy Portland, Maine. In her first published case, she takes on a murder in the yoga studio where she is a part-time teacher.
The case takes her halfway down the Eastern seaboard, into a variety of colorful and threatening locales, and into enough danger to impact her relationship with one of Portland’s best-known young chefs.
How the case gets resolved through Maureen’s tenacity, courage, and practice of yoga, makes Greetings, Kali, a good read for anyone who enjoys the genre.
