Lies We Tell Ourselves: Alexandria De'Moor Investigations

Alexandria De'Moor never expected to start over, but life on Roosevelt Island with Max - her adopted retired police dog - has become home. After leaving homicide work behind, Alex now uses her skills as a private investigator, helping people with compassion, courage, and a deep faith that guides her through every case. Max, who lost his handler in the line of duty, found healing with Alex. Together, they're a team built on trust and second chances. After a long week, Alex takes Max to Connor's Bar for a quiet night. She wants space. Max wants steak. Simple. Until a stranger sits beside her. He's friendly, talkative, and unexpectedly sincere. Alex isn't looking for a connection, but something about him softens her guard. They talk. They laugh. They share pieces of themselves that neither expected to reveal. But Max doesn't like him - not one bit, with good reason. This beautifully illustrated short story introduces young teenage readers to Alex and Max, offering a heartfelt, engaging mystery that's just the right length for teens who love character-driven stories with a touch of danger.
