Product Description

SUNDAY TIMES
'Warshawski, brave, blonde, beautiful, fit and bristling with feminist wit, has transformed a genre sinking beneath its own clichés' --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
When her seedy and importunate Aunt Elena turns up on her doorstep at midnight having been burned out of her old people's home, V.I. Warshawski is exasperated rather than curious. Her interest is aroused however, when an old friend, now a politician, puts pressure on her to investigate. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another entertaining V I Warshawski mystery., 20 Sep 2001
By A Customer
Once again Warshawski is up to her neck in mystery and danger when she gets involved with arson attacks on seedy hotels. It was interesting to experience the feisty female detective having contact with her family, and battling again with the over protective Lt Mallory, a friend of her dead father. As usual her relationships struggle in the face of her dedication to her work, and her refusal to be bought - a rarity in Chicago. Overall, a gripping read complete with familiar characters such as her doctor friend Lotty and well meaning neighbour Mr Contreras.
