Received in the post today, many thanks.

Book Description:
When her seedy and importunate Aunt Elena turns up on her doorstep at midnight, having been burned out of her old people's home, V.I. Warshawski is exasperated rather than curious. Her interest is aroused only when an old friend, now a rising politician, puts pressure on her not to investigate ... and what she discovers isn't pretty: massive corruption and collusion among Chicago politicians and the construction industry. In the complex threads of past loyalties and big aspirations, the political stakes are high and friendship is cheap.

I really enjoyed this book thank you.
I'm getting in to the Warshawski stories now. I read this straight on from reading Bitter Medicine.

I still like the Sue Grafton alphabet stories better, both the heroine and the story-telling.
The old neighbour in the Warshawski books annoys me, he is nowhere near as nice as the old neighbour in the Millhone books :)

This was quite a nice reading. But I definitively prefer "real" mystery stories than political/legal thrillers. Just a question of taste.
