V. I. Warshawski may have left her previous South Chicago neighborhood, but she learns that she cannot escape it. When V.

Through youthful Josie Dorrado, V. I. meets the girl’s mom, who voices her concerns about sabotage in the little flag manufacturing plant where she about Open fire Sale works. The biggest employer on the South Part, discount-store behemoth By-Smart, pays even much less, and Ms. Dorrado doesn’t understand how she’ll support her four children if the flag seed shuts down. The elder Dorrado’s concerns are noticed when the seed explodes; V. I. is certainly injured and the dog owner is wiped out. As V. I. starts to research, she discovers herself confronting the Bysen family members, who very own the By-Smart company. Creator William “Buffalo Expenses” Bysen, right now in his eighties, offers four sons who quarrel with each other and with him; the oldest, “Adolescent Mr. William,” is usually near sixty and furious that his dad doesn’t cede more capacity to him. And then, there’s “Billy the Kid,” Adolescent Mr. William’s nineteen-year-old son, whose Christian idealism places him on the collision course along with his father, his grandfather, and the business as a whole. When Billy runs aside with Josie Dorrado, V. I. is definitely squeezed between the requirements of two very different family members. As she attempts to get the errant teenagers, and to track down a particularly cruel murderer, her own life is almost forfeit in the swamps that lie under the town of Chicago.
