'A novel full of surprises... It's vintage Paretsky, and hard to
put down' - The Sunday Times Named Top 10 Thriller of 2020 by
Kirkus Chicago is the city of broad shoulders, but V.I. Warshawski
knows its politics: "Pay to Play". Money changes hands in the
middle of the night; by morning, buildings and parks have been
replaced by billion-dollar projects. Private investigator V.I. gets
pulled into one of these clandestine deals when her impetuous
goddaughter Bernie tries to rescue a famed singer-songwriter, now
living on the streets. Thanks to Bernie, V.I. finds herself in the
path of some developers whose negotiating strategy is simple: they
bulldoze - or kill - any obstacle in their way. Questions pile up
almost as fast as the dead bodies. When she tries to answer them,
the detective finds a terrifying conspiracy stretching from
Chicago's parks to a cover-up of the dark chapters in the American
government's interference in South American politics. Before finds
answer, V.I. will be pushed closed to breaking point. People who
pay to play take no prisoners.
