No, Duchess does not find his dad in this story...he just gets distracted & runs out of time. After meeting up with Fitz & learning how they framed him, he intends to hunt his dad down (with the baseball bat!), but gets involved in all the other NY escapades & the trip to the Adirondacks & dies before he can even that score. (The package was Sally's preserves that he took to the orphanage.)

I was confused by this too. Especially when they said that the studebaker had been spotted outside the “flop house” where is dad lived?
Donna
does Dutchess die in the end
Tifini Snellings
I had this exact question! It seems like the one plot point that was unfinished…maybe that was the point? Some debts never get paid? Kinda dark, but true

The package was the jars of preserves from Sally.
I'll still sorting through about Duchess and his dad. I'm trying to figure out how/if it connects to the traveling salesman references.
