Description
The corpse is grotesque, an obese woman dressed for graduation, her face contorted by the poison she swallowed. The trail to her murder began months earlier with the search for a new president of the university. History professor Jerry Walsh and law professor Lilith Furman, pursuing that search, work in an environment charged by the inner secrets of the leading candidates-one of them involved in an illicit love affair, another the creature of perverse sexual desires, still another in love with a rival's wife. Will the two professors be able to break the secret computer code to reveal crucial clues to the crimes? Ambition, jealousy and greed; theft, blackmail and murder-you'll find them all in An Old Blue Corpse: A New Haven Mystery, along with a behind-the-scenes portrait of university politics.
