Synopsis

Sara Paretsky is back with a tale of dead bodies, terrorism, intrigue and the indomitable private investigator who leaves no stone unturned - V. I. Warshawski.

When a ninety-one-year-old woman in the wealthy town of New Solway becomes suspicious of goings-on in her old home, Larchmont Hall, V. I. is called in to investigate. A dead journalist in the ornamental pond puts her on a trail which leads her back to the McCarthy era and the involvement of the elderly Calvin Bayard, a major figure in First Amendment circles and CEO of the Bayard Publishing Group. Larchmont Hall, as it turns out, is now home to absolute mayhem, and V.I. detects more than a whiff of anti-Communism in the air as well as a very modern anti-Islamic hysteria.
