#2 in series
Will I read other installments?Probably Not Maybe Likely Most LIkely Definitely I purchased the next three or four in the series; so yes, I will read more.
Comparison to others in series:Better About the same Not as good Good, but it could have been better I liked this and learned a lot about shipping on the Great Lakes (in the 1980s). I wonder how Paretsky did her research. Warshawski got a little annoying with the risks she took, but she solved the crime.
The narrator was Susan Ericksen. Still good, but, as I said above, the character was a little annoying. How much of that can I put on the writer or does it go to the narrator or both?
