Recenzii
V.I. Warshawski is the perfect heroine . . . What [Paretsky] brings to the classic private-eye novel is something entirely original; a dry crackle of wit and a deep emotional sympathy with her characters
Fallout is the best yet in one of our genre's crucial, solid-gold, best-ever series. Paretsky is a genius, and she's never afraid to dig a little deeper
Simply superb! As a fan of V.I. Warshawski from the very beginning, I can say without doubt that FALLOUT finds both author and protagonist at the top of their games
V. I. Warshawski is one of my all-time favorite investigators. Doesn't get any better than this!
An astonishing tour de force - thrilling, moving, illuminating - from an author of matchless intelligence, craft, and power. This is why Sara Paretsky reigns as one of the all-time greats
V.I. Warshawski's impossible god-daughter Bernie convinces her to look for August, a young film-maker who has disappeared. The evidence indicates that he has gone to Kansas in the company of Emerald, an older black movie actress who wants to film the story of her life. Her search takes V.I. from the military base Emerald was born on, to the farm where she grew up outside a university town, ploughing up past- and present-day secrets as she goes.

Everywhere V.I. turns she seems to be finding more trouble - with not a sign of August and Emerald. And then trouble turns to death . . .

Textul de pe ultima copertă
Before there was Lisbeth Salander, before there was Stephanie Plum, there was V.I. Warshawski.
P. D. James called her “the most remarkable” of modern crime writers. Stieg Larsson loved her work so much, he named her in his books. And now Sara Paretsky takes her legendary hero—Victoria Iphigenia by birth, V.I. by profession, and Vic to her friends—on her very first case out of Chicago, when the hunt for a vanished film student and a faded Hollywood star leads her to Kansas. Accompanied by her dog, V.I. tracks the pair through a university town, across fields dotted with Cold War—era missile silos . . . and into a past riven by long-simmering racial tensions. She hopes her search will yield the key to the mysteries of the present but every answer V.I. finds unveils another puzzling question—and leads to more dead bodies. And in her most far-reaching and disturbing case to date, not even the seasoned V.I. is safe.
Suspenseful and provocative, witty and intelligent, Fallout finds Sara Paretsky and V.I. Warshawski working at the height of their powers.
