Bitter Medicine by Sara Paretsky

3.0

Body count of six in this one. Vic does a favor for her doctor friend, Lotty, by driving a pregnant 16 yo and her deadbeat boyfriend to a job interview for the deadbeat out in the burbs. The girl goes into labor two months early. She’s got risk factors. It’s one tragedy after another and Vic is even played by one of the perps. Aptly titled and Vic is both receiving and administering the bitter medicine.
