Bestseller Paretsky tracks the poisonous residue of racial
hatred that still seeps into Chicago life and politics in her fine
13th novel to feature gutsy PI V.I. Vic Warshawski, last seen in
2005’s Fire Sale. In her search for a black man who
disappeared in 1967, Lamont Gadsden, Vic reconnects with some of
her father Tony’s old police colleagues; pays a prison visit to
Johnny Merton, a notorious gang leader she once defended in her
lawyering days; and tracks down Steve Sawyer, who disappeared
following a murder conviction. Vic confronts an ugly period in
Chicago’s history, a peaceful march in 1966 by Martin Luther King
that resulted in a white riot and the murder of a young black
woman, Harmony Newsome. Digging into this ancient history stirs
passions and fears of what secrets might be revealed. The apparent
kidnapping of Vic’s fresh-out-of-college cousin, Petra, who’s come
to Chicago to work on a senatorial campaign, raises the ante.
