D IS FOR DEADBEAT
He called himself Alvin Limardo, and the job he had for Kinsey was cut-and-dried: locate a kid whod done him a favor and pass on a check for $25,000. It was only later, after hed 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 wasnt so sure.
Pulled into the detritus of a dead mans life, Kinsey soon realizes that Daggett had an awful lot of enemies. Theres the daughter who grew up with a cheating drunk for a father, and the wife whos become a religious nut in response to an intolerable marriage. Theres 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. But most of all, there are the families of the five people John Daggett killed, victims of his wild, drunken driving. The . 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.
Deft, cunning, and clever, this latest Millhone mystery also confronts some messy truths, for, as Kinsey herself says, "Some debts of the human soul are so enormous only life itself is sufficient forfeit"—but as shed be the first to admit, murder is not a socially acceptable solution.
