<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Suffolk, 1970. Albert Campion has been appointed to the role of Visitor of the University of Suffolk, but his trip to the campus takes an unexpected turn when the body of a professor is fished out of the lake. Drawn into another puzzling murder, Campion must negotiate seething jealousy, resentment, and betrayal as he searches for a ruthless killer.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><i>An intriguing case of higher education and lower morals: the entertaining new Albert Campion mystery.</i></b> <p/> <i>Suffolk, 1970.</i> Albert Campion is back in Black Dudley, once the scene of murder and mayhem but now home to the brand-new University of Suffolk Coastal. Appointed to the role of the university's Visitor, Campion finds he has a curiously vague remit, but his initial visit to the concrete campus takes an unexpected turn when the body of charismatic Chilean professor Pascual Perez-Catalan, a rising star and genius scientist in the field of geochemistry, is fished out of the ornamental lake. <p/> It seems Pascual was unpopular among his fellow academics and lecturers, his trail-blazing research taking up most of the university's new computing capacity . . . and he was also a keen ladies man. Drawn into another puzzling murder, Campion must negotiate internal politics, seething jealousy and resentment, blackmail, betrayal and a phantom trumpeter as he searches for a ruthless killer. <p/><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>'Neatly combines humor and mystery ... Fans of Allingham's originals will be well pleased.'</i>-- "<b><i>Publishers Weekly</i></b>"<br>
