Descriere
V I Warshawski is out on her own in this new crime novel by the bestselling author who defined the female PI sub-genre.
Textul de pe ultima copertă
Before there was Lisbeth Salander, before there was Stephanie Plum, there was V.I. Warshawski.
P. D. James called her “the most remarkable” of modern crime writers. Stieg Larsson loved her work so much, he named her in his books. And now Sara Paretsky takes her legendary hero—Victoria Iphigenia by birth, V.I. by profession, and Vic to her friends—on her very first case out of Chicago, when the hunt for a vanished film student and a faded Hollywood star leads her to Kansas. Accompanied by her dog, V.I. tracks the pair through a university town, across fields dotted with Cold War—era missile silos . . . and into a past riven by long-simmering racial tensions. She hopes her search will yield the key to the mysteries of the present but every answer V.I. finds unveils another puzzling question—and leads to more dead bodies. And in her most far-reaching and disturbing case to date, not even the seasoned V.I. is safe.
Suspenseful and provocative, witty and intelligent, Fallout finds Sara Paretsky and V.I. Warshawski working at the height of their powers.
