Windy City Blues [A V. I. Warshawski Novel] [Secure Mobipocket/eReader (recommended)]
by Sara Paretsky
|
|
The teenage tennis star had a frighteningly brutal trainer--her father. So nobody cried when he got strangled in the women's locker room. Now V.I. Warshawski wants to clear the number one suspect--who was showering alone at the time in "Strung Out". And in "Skin Deep", after his trip to the salon the stranger wasn't looking so good. Maybe it was the poison facial. V.I. Warshawski tries a few new creams herself while she looks for somebody, anybody connected to this guy.
