Finding Fiona
Where is Fiona Watson? She was not home when her parents arrived for a prearranged dinner. This is so out of character for Fiona that they are convinced she is missing and possibly in trouble. The police, busy dealing with an active terrorist incident, are stretched thin and don’t agree; after all it might just be a mix up in dates or time.
Katie Holmes has finally launched her new private investigations company days ago and is anxiously awaiting her first client. She must start earning. She can’t continue to rely on relatives for free childcare, a necessity as both Katie and her husband have erratic and unpredictable work schedules.
Frantic with worry, imagining the worst, Fiona’s parents hire Katie to find their daughter. Katie is both thrilled at the opportunity to help, but terrified of the consequences if she fails. Speed is of the essence. The first forty-eight hours of a missing person’s case are crucial. The longer Fiona is missing, the worst the outcome.
Almost immediately Katie unearths multiple possible suspects and races against the clock, digging into motives, opportunities, and alibis. Hampered by a rare London snowstorm and tormented by self-doubt, Katie powers on until she identifies the abductor and finally has enough evidence to get the police and their resources involved.
Once the police are on the case, despite being pushed aside by the investigation team, Katie doggedly continues to work the case from the sidelines and once again supplies the police with vital information. If they are not too late, they just might find Fiona.

Be careful what you wish for! Fiona's dream finally comes true which, unfortunately turns out to be much more than she bargained for. Her situation is dire but, luckily, someone is willing to help. Have you ever been curious about what it takes to be a private investigator? Well, wonder no more. In "Finding Fiona" you get a step by step primer on how to be successful in this tedious, stressful job. Readers are treated to a harrowing tale, made more suspenseful because, initially, the only person working to find Fiona is a neophyte who must learn as she goes and can't afford to make a mistake. You can't go wrong with this one.
