Book description
The fifth novel in the V. I. Warhawski crime series, set in Chicago,
from prize-winning author Sara Paretsky. When V. I. Warshawski is asked
to search for the father of a childhood friend, she assumes it'll be a
straightforward case. But the return to her old Chicago neighbourhood
reignites dark memories from her past - memories she'd sooner forget. As
the body of another old friend suddenly turns up, V. I. finds herself
embroiled in a dangerous quest for justice which pits her against the
bosses of big business and industrial corruption. It's one of her
toughest and most personal cases yet, one from which she may not emerge
entirely unscathed . . . 'With the creation of V. I. Warshawski, Sara
Paretsky did more than anyone to change the face of contemporary women's
fiction.' Sara Paretsky, the author of the V. I. Warshawski novels,
