Book Description:
This is the book that introduces us to V.I. Warshawski, possibly the toughest female private investigator in the game. Set in Chicago, she is hired by an influential businessman to find his son and his son's girlfriend. It doesn't take long before she finds the son dead, the man who hired her wasn't whom he said he was, and she's had the proverbial beaten out of her as a warning to drop the case. V.I. is another one of those private investigators that, once hired, will stop at nothing to solve the case. Although she's told by her original client that he no longer requires her services, she persists like a dog with a bone, determined to see the case through to it's conclusion.

Meeting an anonymous client late on a sizzling summer night is asking for trouble. ut trouble is Chicago private eye V.I. Warshawski's specialty. Her client says he's the prominent banker, John Thayer. Turns out he's not. He says his son's girlfriend is missing. But he gave her the wrong name for the girlfriend. V.I.'s search turns up someone soon enough--the real John Thayer's son, and he's dead. Who is her client? Why has she been set up and sent out on a wild goose chance? By the time she's got it figured things are hotter--and deadlier--than Chicago in July. V.I.'s in a desperate race against time. At stake: a young woman's life.
