Hardback. Condición: Very Good. It's strictly Friends & Family as V.I. Warshawski, the detective mystery fans have been waiting for (Time), makes return appearances in a collection of stories that bring new meaning to ties that bind. Decked out in her silk shirts and no-nonsense Attitude, V.I. is out to make a living--by the skin of her teeth.

The Pietro Andromache finds V.I.'s friend Dr. Lotty Herschel with motive and means to dispatch her professional rival and steal his priceless statue. Lotty didn't do it--but does she know who did? V.I. soon cuts to the art of the case--and it's not a pretty picture at all Summoned by an old high school friend to a race At the Old Swimming Hole, V.I. ends up swimming with the sharks--the FBI and a ruthless gambling kingpin--in a pool of blood. And it's only Skin Deep when a relaxing facial transformation transforms a client into a stiff. V.I.'s pal Sal needs help. Her beautician sister Evangeline is prime suspect--and V.I. has only eighteen hours to crack the case before it's headline news. Three-Dot Po proves there's nothing like a dog. Especially a dog on the trail of her mistress's killer, with V.I. in tow. In Strung Out, love means nothing and V.I.'s quick to learn the score as her old friend's tennis-champion daughter is under suspicion for strangling her father with a racket string. And there's more, nine stories in all, in this masterful collection of short fiction starring V.I. Warshawski, the most engaging woman in detective fiction since Dorothy Sayers's Harriet Vane (Newsweek). Nº de ref. del artículo: 00095916709
