Synopsis

Private
eye V.I. Warshawski finds herself up against rampant corruption in Chicago’s
hospitals in the fourth novel in Sara Paretsky’s New York Times
bestselling series.

Young, diabetic, and pregnant, Consuelo Alvarado is lucky to
have a mentor in V.I. Warshawski. But not even V.I. can help when Consuelo goes
into premature labor in a remote suburb; mother and baby both die in the nearby
hospital. When a young resident starts raising questions about Consuelo’s
treatment, what seemed like a tragic accident turns into something far more
disturbing. What connection could the hospital have with Chicago’s street
gangs? What heavy secret is the hospital’s neonatologist carrying? The
questions the detective asks cut to the heart of everything that is troubling
about the practice of medicine in America. Can V.I. sort out the answers before
she herself ends up in the hospital morgue?
