"V.I. Warshawski rules...the most engaging woman in detective fiction." Newsweek
Review
"'Warshawski's tense, sharp 11th shows that you really can go home again' - Kirkus Reviews (starred) 'Packed with social themes and moral energy, held together by humor, compassion and sheer feistiness, this novel shows why Paretsky and her heroine are such enduring figure in American detective fiction' - Publishers Weekly (starred) 'Sara Paretsky's thrillers about V.I. Warshawski set a template for a generation of private-eye novels with young, tough, radical heroines.' - The Times Literary Supplement 'Sara Paretsky is the Raymond Chandler of the female private eye novel.' - The Times 'Sara Paretsky's unquenchable feminist gumshoe V.I. Warshawski is the perfect heroine for women up to their ears in domestic trivia... What she brings to the classic private-eye novel is something entirely original; a dry crackle of wit and a deep emotional sympathy with her characters, which never tips into slushiness. Above all, she has V.I., a detective who matures through the novels like good wine.' - The Sunday Times 'With the creation of V.I. Warshawski, Sara Paretsky did more than anyone to change the face of contemporary women's fiction.' - Express on Sunday"
