Product Description[Read by Chris Williams] Professor Karen Pelletier is up for tenure in the English department at New England's exclusive Enfield College. Then her rival for the one tenured spot, Professor Joseph Lone Wolf, whose ethnicity gives him minoritypreference status, is found dead. Karen, first on the list of suspects, is harassed by a homicide cop with a grudge against Karen's boyfriend, Lieutenant Charlie Piotrowski. Meanwhile, political passions rage on campus, and two of Karen's favorite students Khalida Ahmed, a hijabwearing Muslim, and Hank Brody, a coalminer's son on full scholarship are caught up in the furor. Without the presence of her beloved Charlie, now serving in Iraq, will Karen be able to survive the investigation, protect her students, and find a permanent niche in the world of academia? And what if the killer feels the need to strike again?Review''Fans of academic mysteries will savor this one.'' Library Journal''Everything you'd expect from an academic mystery.'' Kirkus Reviews''Professor Karen Pelletier makes her sixth appearance in Dobson's latest academic mystery . . . Adding interest to the mystery are insider details about academic life and Pelletier's concerns over her lover, who is serving in Iraq, and her daughter, who is in Nepal. Williams portrays Pelletier as quick talking and sharp voiced, a smart, modern woman. Other character voices are not as strongly delineated, but subtle tonal shifts indicate changes. Williams keeps the pace brisk, nicely managing the rhythm of the plot, speeding up when Pelletier is agitated and slowing down to allow listeners to savor the author's trademark skewers at academia.'' Booklist audio reviewAbout the AuthorJOANNE DOBSON teaches English at Fordham University. Her first 'Professor Karen Pelletier' academic mystery was an Agatha Award nominee. She and her husband live in the New York City area and have three grown children.
