Reviews
Praise for Sara Paretsky and Her Detective Series Featuring V. I. Warshawski "The best on the beat? V.I. Warshawski [is] the top of the line." -- Chicago Tribune "Who is America's most convincing and engaging professional female private eye? V.I. Warshawski, the star of Sara Paretsky's series about white-collar crime and wall-to-wall corruption in Chicago, now clearly leads the growing field." -- Entertainment Weekly "What really continues to amaze and impress about this series is V.I. herself, undoubtedly one of the best-written characters in mystery fiction." -- The Baltimore Sun "Parentsky's work does more than turn a genre upside down: Her books are beautifully paced and plotted. . . . The dialogue is fresh and smart." -- Newsweek

Synopsis
"V.I. Warshawski is one of the best . . . smart, tough, sexy."-- Daily News (New York) "Sara Paretsky makes excellent use of local backgrounds in a carefully plotted tale of murder and great misdeeds in the world of Great Lakes cargo shipping."-- Chicago Tribune When Chicago Black Hawks hockey legend Boom Boom Warshawski slips off a wharf and drowns in Lake Michigan, his private-eye cousin questions the accidental death report and rumors of suicide. Armed with a bottle of Black Label and a Smith & Weson, V.I. follows a trail of violence and corruption to the center of the Windy City's powerful shipping industry. Dodging elaborate attempts on her life with characteristic grit and humor, the one-of-a-kind detective wends her way through a maze of grain elevators and thousand-ton freighters, ruthless businessmen and gorgeous ballerinas, to ferret out Boom Boom's killers before they phase her out of the picture--permanently. "Hard-boiled detective fiction . . . a swift-paced and engrossing read."-- The Philadelphia Inquirer "Slithers with suspense!"-- Chicago Sun-Times, When Chicago Black Hawks hockey legend Boom Boom Warshawski slips off a wharf and drowns in Lake Michigan, his private-eye cousin questions the accidental death report and rumors of suicide.
