- <p> She has detailed his emotional distance in a book and in
- whiny TV appearances, but Patti Davis apparently doesn't want
- the world to know every detail of the strained relationship
- she's had with her famous father, Ronald Reagan. Davis is suing
- a Los Angeles manuscript broker to retrieve a letter the former
- President once sent her. Dealer Charles Sachs says he has a
- $20,000 offer for the missive, which he describes as "warm,
- thoughtful" but "particularly sensitive." Davis would have to
- fork over half the price to get it back, says Sachs. No sale,
- says Davis, who claims the letter was not to be offered until
- after Reagan's death.
