V.I. Warshawski isn't crazy about going back to her old south Chicago neighborhood, but a promise is something she always keeps. Caroline, a childhood friend, has a dying mother and a problem -- after twenty-five years she wants V.I. to find the father she never knew. But when V.I. starts probing into the past, she not only finds out where all the bodies are buried -- she stumbles onto a very new corpse. Now she's stirring up a deadly mix of big business and chemical corruption that may become a toxic shock to a snooper who knows too much.From the Paperback edition.

V. I. Warshawski is a well established female PI. While I know that in many ways this is a send up of the genre I was a bit disappointed. Seen as one of the few feminist detective characters the rest of the women in the book were terrible characters. Maybe I just got a bad book (its only the 5th of 17) and also a bit of its time 1988.
