This was a good mystery with the past of the Holocaust affecting the events in the present. I liked how V.I. gradually learned about Lotty’s past.

Sara Paretsky hits another home run with this newest V. I. Warshawski novel. I am a very recent discoverer of Ms. Paretsky’s, but she continues to keep me coming back for more. In Total Recall, the combination of flashback sequences and Warshawski’s own original detective flair add up to me eagerly awaiting each new page, yet savoring each one to delay the eventual ending.
