Legendary detective V.I. Warshawski uncovers a mystery with roots dating back to the Civil War in this edge-of-your-seat thriller from New York Times bestseller Sara Paretsky.
V.I. Warshawski is famous for her cool under fire, her sardonic humor, and her unflinching courage. All that changes when a case ends with a father killing the child sheโd been hired to find. Sheโs second-guessing herself, forgetting to eat, forgetting her workout. Her worried friends send her down to Kansas for a weekend of college basketball; Angela, one of her protรฉgรฉes, is a Northwestern star. And thatโs when V.I.โs troubles really begin. Sabrina, one of Angelaโs roommates, disappears and V.I. agrees to stay behind to try to find her. Finding a missing person in a town where she doesnโt know anyone and has no snitches is hard, but not as hard as the local reaction to the detective.
When V.I. finds Sabrina close to death in a drug house, the motherโs gratitude quickly turns to suspicion. V.I. finds herself in the FBIโs crosshairs, and the young men running the countyโs opioid distribution are not happy. When V.I. discovers a local troublemakerโs dead body in the drug house a few days later, she is pitched headlong into a local land-use battle with roots going back to the Civil War. Todayโs combatants are just as willing as opponents in the 1860s to kill to settle their differences. V.I.โs survival depends on keeping one step ahead of players in a game she doesnโt even know sheโs playing.
