â€œThe best cozy debut Iâ€™ve read this year. An engaging heroine, a college setting that will have you aching to go back to school, and a puzzler of a mystery make this a must-read for cozy lovers.â€ â€“ Laura DiSilverio, National Bestselling Author of the Readaholics Book Club Mysteries

â€œA pitch-perfect portrayal of academic life with a beguiling cast of anxious newbies, tweedy old troublemakers and scholars as sharp as theyâ€™re wise. Lilaâ€™s Stonedale is a world Iâ€™m thrilled to have found. Roll on book two!â€ â€“ Catriona McPherson, Multi-Award-Winning Author of the Dandy Gilver Series

â€œCollege professor Lila Maclean gets an A+ for her detecting skills in this twisty mystery set at a Colorado university. With suspects and motives galore, solving the murder of department chair Roland Higgins wonâ€™t be easy, but Lilaâ€™s got brains and guts to spare. A great book...I canâ€™t wait to see what author Cynthia Kuhn does next!â€ â€“ Maggie Barbieri, Author of the Murder 101 Series

â€œCynthia Kuhn takes readers on a mind-boggling safari into the wilds of academia where we encounter thundering pedants, rampaging sexists, slavering narcissists, run-amok egotistsâ€”and come to relish the few oases of sanity and kindness. Only an insider like Kuhn can reveal the savagery behind the mask of scholarship and collegiality with such acuity and grace.â€ â€“ Lev Raphael, Author of Assault With a Deadly Lie

â€œI have a real fondness for academic mysteries and this one is first rate.â€ â€“ For the Love of Books

â€œTakes the reader into higher educationâ€™s secrets and shadows, where the real lesson is for the new professorâ€”how to stay alive. If youâ€™re smart, youâ€™ll read this book.â€ â€“ Lori Rader-Day, Anthony Award-Winning Author of The Black Hour

English professor Lila Maclean is thrilled about her new job at prestigious Stonedale University, until she finds one of her colleagues dead. She soon learns that everyone, from the chancellor to the detective working the case, believes Lilaâ€”or someone she is protectingâ€”may be responsible for the horrific event, so she assigns herself the task of identifying the killer.

More attacks on professors follow, the only connection a curious symbol at each of the crime scenes. Putting her scholarly skills to the test, Lila gathers evidence, but her search is complicated by an unexpected nemesis, a suspicious investigator, and an ominous secret society. Rather than earning an â€œAâ€ for effort, she receives a threat featuring the mysterious emblem and must act quickly to avoid failing her assignmentâ€¦and becoming the next victim.
