Historia
On her way home from an all-night surveillance job, V.I. Warshawski’s dogs lead her on a mad chase that ends when they discover a badly injured teen hiding in the rocks along Lake Michigan. The girl only regains consciousness long enough to utter one enigmatic word. V.I. helps bring her to a hospital, but not long after, she vanishes before anyone can discover her identity. As V.I. attempts to find her, the detective uncovers an ugly consortium of Chicago powerbrokers and mobsters who are prepared to kill the girl. And now V.I.’s own life is in jeopardy as well.

The voice of VI
Revisado: 09-12-22
I was reviewing some of the messages- for those of us that have read all the VI books by listening; Susan Erickson is as much a part of these books as Pepe and Mr. Contreras. Please keep her and keep writing VI into life.

Historia
Accompanied by her dog, V. I. tracks her quarry through a university town, across fields where missile silos once flourished - and into a past riven by long-simmering racial tensions, a past that holds the key to the crimes of the present. But as the mysteries stack up, so does the body count. And in this, her toughest case, not even V. I. is safe.

Why is the author
Revisado: 09-06-22
Why does she pick readers with poor performance ability? Poor Italian accent- VI mother was important in her life I thought she would be more careful- use the reader that performs the initial VI books

Very Dark
Revisado: 10-05-19
I know vigilantism is a dark subject as is back alley abortion and war etc- but to hear these grouped in a story and in detail was too much-
I have taken care of patients who survived the Bataan death march- I learned to not make them relive the past

For years, guitarist Quinn Porter has been on the road, chasing gig after gig, largely absent to his twice-ex-wife Belle and their odd, Guinness records-obsessed son. When the boy dies suddenly, Quinn seeks forgiveness for his paternal shortcomings by completing the requirements for one of his son's unfinished Boy Scout badges. For seven Saturdays Quinn does yard work for Ona Vitkus, the spry 104-year-old Lithuanian immigrant the boy had visited weekly.

Historia
It’s only a slight exaggeration to say that the British mathematician Alan Turing (1912-1954) saved the Allies from the Nazis, invented the computer and artificial intelligence, and anticipated gay liberation by decades--all before his suicide at age forty-one. This classic biography of the founder of computer science, reissued on the centenary of his birth with a substantial new preface by the author, is the definitive account of an extraordinary mind and life.

Purpose of long drawn-out torture
Revisado: 04-03-16
Could have been a great book- but too much time spent on the graffic torture
Very good depiction of how rape/murder abduction effects family friends for years
Missed opportunity to provide info about abduction

What did you like best about As Chimney Sweepers Come to Dust? What did you like least?
The reader bring Flavia to life- but I was disappointed by the story- a body dropping out of the chimney?--should have tied her mother in better
Would you ever listen to anything by Alan Bradley again?
well if he starts answering the questions posed in the early novels
Which character – as performed by Jayne Entwistle – was your favorite?
Flavia and Dogger
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
maybe?

Historia
In Total Recall, Sara Paretsky brings together several disparate plots in one gripping story. This powerfully suspenseful novel confronts the machinations of a vast and corrupt industry that trades on the victims of Nazi terrorism; the strange and dubious phenomenon of "recovered memory;" and a personal story that brings V. I. Warshawski into the long-buried past of her dearest friend and mentor, Dr. Lotty Herschel.
