Search - Indemnity Only (V.I. Warshawski, Bk 1)

This is quite a classic PI story, with an interesting angle since the tough PI carrying a gun and getting into fights that end up in bruised eyes and broken bones is a chick. A great read for a vacation or just for fun, the story is maingly superficial but the author does capture (I think) the inner workings and contradictions of a tough chick. Interesting read for a woman, then, but also for a guy.

This Sara Paretsky book is a good beginning for what has become an awesome series. I hate to give up my copies of them but it is time to make room on my book shelves. Indemnity Only is the second of the VI Warshawski detective series and takes place during one of those sizzling humid Chicago summers. The heat isn't the only trouble VI runs into as she tries to solve a case that is based on a house of cards, one lie after another.

The first V.I. Warshawski mystery.

Meeting an anonymous client late on a sizzling summer night is asking for trouble.

I like V.I. and this book was not a disappointment. I think it is one of this authors earliest stories and is very well written. Good book

Good mystery, enjoyed.
