Breakdown

"Completely compelling and absorbing suspense from the queen of the female PI crime novel. When some teenagers hold an initiation ritual in an abandoned cemetery, they stumble on a man stabbed through the heart. The girls include daughters of Chicago's most powerful families: the grandfather of one, Chaim Salanter, is one of the world's wealthiest men; the mother of another, Sophy Durango, is the Illinois Democratic candidate for Senate. For V. I. Warshawski, the questions multiply faster than the answers. Is the killing linked to a hostile media campaign against Sophy Durango? Or to Chaim Salanter's childhood in Nazi-occupied Lithuania?"
