Emma Monique: Problem-Solver - Book Five - Mastermind

The City of Harlech is a new city, but the path of this city is up for decision with the 1984 municipal election. Both Emma Monique and Kaj Kejsaren are apathetic to the political election. Emma now runs a bustling private investigations company, and Kaj faces a disciplinary hearing for his past actions, but both are anxious for the future of the city nonetheless. They take out their anxieties as they separately investigate those in control of the city, hoping to learn who or what criminal organization aims to take control, or continue to control, the city in a position of absolute power and consolidate the criminal activities of the city for their own doing. To aid their efforts, they come to reflect on the past again, where a power struggle ensued fifteen years ago for control of the city, but now continues to struggle for control of the Greater Harlech region. This final battle for control pushes both Emma and Kaj to their limits, transforming each of them for better or for worse, as they action their own plans in opposition to the hostile powers that lurk.
