Traces

Marjorie Kane, retired exotic dancer, hooks up with retired Alan Lockem, a former Army Intelligence officer. She has computer skills and human evaluation skills beyond Lockem's. Together they make a formidable though unlicensed duo of investigators. Their primary interest is helping solve dangerous puzzles for citizens of Minnesota. Their advancing ages precludes much physical action although both are proficient with small arms. In this crime novel the team of Lockem and Kane respond to a request from British colleague to retrieve a flash drive. The courier is murdered in front of Lockem at the same time an intruder leaves a CD in the couple's home. More intrigue follows and the couple is entangled with the discovery of an international terrorist and involvement with multiple law enforcement agencies in their effort to find the missing flash drive and sort out who has them under surveillance, and who is trying to kill them.
