Is it mayhem or a faculty meeting? At the State University of Michigan in Michiganapolis, you can't always tell. But what you can be sure of is that tenure-hungry assistant professor Nick Hoffman is going to find himself involved in another murder investigation, even though he's been warned by university officials not to cause any more bad publicity for SUM. Written with literate style and grace, this third Nick Hoffman mystery gives the grand tradition of Kingsley Amis and David Lodge some very American twists. As Val McDermid says: "Lev Raphael's lacerating wit fillets the fatted calves of academe, roasts them with the hot breath of satire , then serves them up in the sauciest of mysteries."

Passing on to a Green - booted crazy mate to contribute to her latest challenge.
