The enigmatic performer known as the Body Artist takes the stage at Chicago's club Gouge and offers her naked body as a canvas for the audience's impromptu illustrations. V. I. Warshawski watches as people step forward, some meek, some bold, to make their mark. The evening takes a strange turn when one woman's sketch triggers a violent outburst from an Iraqi war vet at a nearby table. Days later, the woman is shot outside the club, and police move to arrest the vet.
