steering a course for ports unknown,

navigating her journey over high seas.

Safe passage to you both.

Wednesday afternoon, April 6, 1988

What fascinates me about life is that now and then the past rises up and declares itself. Afterward, the sequence of events seems inevitable, but only because cause and effect have been aligned in advance. Its like a pattern of dominoes arranged upright on a tabletop. With the flick of your finger, the first tile topples into the second, which in turn tips into the third, setting in motion a tumbling that goes on and on, each tile knocking over its neighbor until al of them fal down. Sometimes the impetus is pure chance, though I discount the notion of accidents. Fate stitches together elements that seem unrelated on the surface. Its only when the truth emerges you see how the bones are joined and everything connects.

Heres the odd part. In my ten years as a private eye, this was the first case I ever managed to resolve without crossing paths with the bad guys.

Except at the end, of course.

My name is Kinsey Mil hone. Im a private detective, female, age thirty-seven, with my thirty-eighth birthday coming up in a month. Having been married and divorced twice, Im now happily single and expect to remain so for life. I have no children thus far and I dont anticipate bearing any. Not only are my eggs getting old, but my biological clock wound down a long time ago. I suppose theres always room for one of lifes little surprises, but thats not the way to bet.

I work solo out of a rented bungalow in Santa Teresa, California, a town of roughly 85,000 souls who generate sufficient crime to occupy the Santa Teresa Police Department, the County Sheriffs Department, the California Highway Patrol, and the twenty-five or so local private investigators like me. Movies and television shows would have you believe a PIs job is dangerous, but nothing could be farther from the truth...
