      About This Book

      EQUAL OPPORTUNITY MURDER

      Start with a missing co-ed sought by a mysterious client who won't reveal his true identity. Mix in a dead boyfriend whose body you're unlucky enough to find. Then for good measure throw in the local cops who simply want you out of the way.

      Combine the explosively revealing records of a major insurance company and the murderous goons of the city's most powerful union who've nailed you for a target.

      It all adds up to a killer of a case for Chicago private eye VI. Warshawski, karate black belt, law school graduate, and every inch a woman.
