About this ebook

Final Estimate begins when private detective Deirdre Cash is hired
to find a missing daughter. After locating her, the case continues
with the search for the daughters missing boyfriend. It ends with
a murder. Unwilling to leave the identity of the murderer to the
police, Deirdre continues her investigation. In the process she
encounters a number of fascinating suspects, including the mother
whose daughter Deirdre had initially been hired to locate and her
daughters male and female associates. Thats half of the story.
For the other half, Deirdre loses her husband to a young beauty
with whom she becomes intimately involved. In the final estimate
the tale ends in a double triumph.
