Critics Review

With the creation of V.I. Warshawski, Sara Paretsky did more than anyone to change the face of contemporary women’s fiction.

How enjoyable to settle down with a new book by Sara Paretsky. - Sunday Telegraph

With the creation of V.I. Warshawski, Sara Paretsky did more than anyone to change the face of contemporary women’s fiction. - Express on Sunday

Warshawski’s darkest outing, with no sign that her creator is flagging. Paretsky has written a novel in which a great deal is stripped bare, including Warshawski’s innermost anxieties about herself, producing a narrative as gripping as it is emotionally wrenching. - JOAN SMITH, Sunday Times
