In her thirteenth outing, V. I. Warshawksi goes back to her roots when she fills in for a basketball coach in her old neighborhood. She also gets involved in a Romeo and Juliet romance, trades barbs with a business tycoon and tries to find a missing teenager. Join us for our discussion of Fire Sale by Sara Paretsky in the upper level tutor room. Publisher’s Weekly says that this book is “packed with social themes and moral energy and held together by humor, compassion and feistiness, and it shows why this character and her author are such enduring figures in American detective fiction.”
