Alexa can’t resist a mystery, so when a former colleague and longtime friend Detective Inspector Kieran Hussey (Bernard Curry) asks her to “consult” on his trickier cases, she’s reluctant but she cannot resist. Joining Alexa in her quest to solve the unsolvable is the bubbly, sarcastic, ambitious and grounded, Madison (Ebony Vagulans).
