Jerry Leong asked Daring Diane:

I just finished Drew Leighton #5, Guns and Bullies, and enjoyed it very much. However, there was a loose end left at the end - how did the kidnappers know that Sally Carson, the Vice-president's daughter, would be at the concert? Clearly, the information could only have come from either connected to the Sally or Ashley's dates or from someone connected to law enforcement outside of the Secret Service. Follow up?

Daring Diane Thank you for your question. I sort of assumed information leaked from the police. It is a bit of a hole. While the FBI was cut out, the police force was involved. The mayor or his wife might talk to someone who leaked the events. If they had followed the group from the dance to the concert, they could have assumed they would leave by the same door they entered. As discussed there was a plan to have a visible police presence outside the dance which might have precluded them from acting there. As mentioned, one of the dates could have mentioned something on social media, but I would have expected the secret service to notice that and change plans in that instance.
Thanks for the comments and for reading.
