More DescriptionThis story was written and published in the SISTERS ON THE CASE anthology edited by Sara Paretsky (Signet, 2007). I originally wrote this as an exercise to prepare for writing SET THE NIGHT ON FIRE. This story, like the longer thriller, takes place - in part -- during the Chicago Democratic Convention of 1968.
