This is book number 4 (out of 26) in the Kinsey Millhone series by Sue Grafton. Of course I had to read this, you couldn't eat a sandwich but not the cheese! This book has 320 pages.
I wonder when they will start to make these book movies? I would really like to see how they would portray some of the actors and scenes. Until they do I have about 20 more books to go! Onto E is for Evidence and F is for Fugitive. Thank you Becca for letting me borrow these and the ones that follow!
"He called himself Alvin Limardo, and the job he had for Kinsey was cut-and-dried: locate a kid who'd done him a favor and pass on a check for $25,000. It was only later, after he'd stiffed her for her retainer, that Kinsey found out his name was Daggett. John Daggett. Ex-con. Inveterate liar. Chronic drunk. And dead. The cops called it an accident—death by drowning. Kinsey wasn't so sure.
Kinsey soon realizes that Daggett had an awful lot of enemies. There's the daughter who grew up with a cheating drunk for a father, and the wife who's become a religious nut in response to an intolerable marriage. There's the lady who thought she was Mrs. Daggett—and has the bruises to prove it—only to discover the legal Mrs. D. And there are the drug dealers out $25,000. The families of the five people John Daggett killed, victims of his wild, drunken driving. The D.A. called it vehicular manslaughter and put him away for two years. The families called it murder and had very good reason to want John Daggett dead." - synopses from Barnes and Noble.
