Killing Orders by Sara Paretsky


Years ago, V I Warshawski's Aunt Rosa treated the detective's beloved mother in an unforgiveable way.  Now, after she's accused of stealing $3 million from the Dominican priory where she works, Rosa calls upon the ties of blood to clear her name.

V I is not prepared to forgive so easily.  She doesn't want the case.  Until suddenly no one else - the FBI, a threatening phone caller, and even Aunt Rosa herself - appears to want her on the case either.

The stakes are higher than she could have realised.

V I Warshawski is tough, attractive and funny.  Her specialty is financial crime.  This is a good 'un.


Killing Orders (1985) is the third book in the V I Warshawski novel series.

Rating:  5/5
