Diagnosis Murder: The Death Merchant - Plot & Excerpts
Diane Love did send her mother some money. Every year on her mother's birthday, Diane sent $5,000 in cash in a manila envelope. Wyatt knew this because every year he intercepted the parcel before it was delivered and kept the money.Actually, he intercepted all of her mother's mail before it was delivered, passing it on only after he'd screened it for any clues to Diane's whereabouts. So far, he hadn't found anything that might help him locate the fugitive.The money was sent from a different major American city each year. Seattle. San Francisco. Phoenix. Boston. New York. Wyatt doubted Diane was moving that frequently. He assumed she traveled to those cities simply to mail the parcel from a spot as far away from her actual location as possible.Wyatt had scoured airline, train, and bus manifests covering the two or three days of arrivals to each city in advance of each postmarked parcel, looking for any names that recurred among the thousands on the lists, Of course, she also could have driven to each of the cities, but there was no way he could think of to track that.He found a few recurring names on the airline and train manifests and spent a few weeks searching those people out.
