This weekend from Large Target, Jo is at the home of the missing admiral’s daughter when she finds out that the admiral’s daughter-in-law has turned down the kidnappers' demands, claiming that they don't have a million dollars or any way to raise it. His children agree that they don't.
"Colleen told them to call back tomorrow and put the admiral on the line, so we'd better figure out how much we can offer," Ivor said.
"Would the admiral's money be enough?" I asked.
Amy turned to me and asked, "Why don't you ask Mrs. Madrone?"
"How did you know I worked for Mrs. Madrone?"
She laughed a little wildly, then put her hand over her mouth."You just told me, Jo."
