Description
V.I. Warshawski's impossible god-daughter Bernie convinces her to look for August, a young film-maker who has disappeared. The evidence indicates that he has gone to Kansas in the company of Emerald, an older black movie actress who wants to film the story of her life. Her search takes V.I. from the military base Emerald was born on, to the farm where she grew up outside a university town, ploughing up past and present-day secrets as she goes. What is happening at the former nuclear missile site next door to the farm? What happened at the site in 1983, when students tried to stage their own version of Greenham Common? Everywhere V.I. turns she seems to be finding more trouble - with not a sign of August and Emerald. And then trouble turns to death.

Notes
General Note
Sara Paretsky takes her legendary hero--Victoria Iphigenia by birth, V.I. by profession, and Vic to her friends--on her first case out of Chicago, when the hunt for a vanished film student and a faded Hollywood star leads her to Kansas. Accompanied by her dog, V.I. tracks the pair through a university town, across fields dotted by Cold War-era missile silos...and into a past riven by long-simmering racial tensions. She hopes her search will yield the key to the mysteries of the present but every answer V.I. finds unveils another puzzling question--and leads to more dead bodies. Suspenseful and provocative, witty and intelligent, Fallout finds by Sara Paretsky and V.I. Warshawski working at the height of their abilities. --from back cover.
