Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
The authors--father-daughter private investigators--know from experience just how often people want to find family members, natural parents, old flames, old friends, deadbeat dads, witnesses, or missing heirs. Furthermore, they know how easy and inexpensive it is to conduct the search. Using CD-ROM databases, death records, military connections, and the Internet (with its listings by phone directory, alumni lists, and professional associations), they say you can find what you're looking for on your own. Following their instructions and using their comprehensive resources, you ought to be able to find anyone in no time.
From Library Journal
In its second edition, this work includes useful tips and resources for locating missing persons, living or dead, with a decided emphasis on using the Internet as part of the process. The authors are father-and-daughter private investigators whose firm, Nationwide Locator, specializes in locating people and has published books about finding military personnel and unclaimed money. The clear approach and readable style will appeal to the general public interested in adoption, genealogy, reunions (family, school, military), missing heirs, deadbeat spouses, and other related topics. But while the appendixes offer ready-reference value, covering state agency contact information, federal records centers, information about filing Freedom of Information Act requests, Social Security number allocation, locator services, and a brief list of helpful publications, one must read the book in its entirety to absorb the anecdotal case studies and tips on searching the Internet efficiently. Thus, it may find greater use in circulating collections.?Elizabeth Connor, Medical Univ. of S.C. Lib., Charleston

Well written and comprehensive investigation resource,
By A Customer
This review is from: Find Anyone Fast: Easy-To-Use Guide to Finding Anyone Anywhere! (Paperback)
"Find anyone fast" is a well thought out and great resource for anyone who is new to conducting an investigation or who is unsure of how to proceed with one. There is a good mix of actual case histories as well as how it is done and how it can be applied in 'your' case.And the best part is a well laid out appendix of every state with names, addresses and phone numbers of virtually anyone you might need to contact for records or assistance. All in all, it's a definite 'must have' for both the amateur and intermediate layman conducting their own investigation to find anyone.
