Sophie Knowles, a mathematics professor at Henley College in Massachusetts, investigates the death of chemistry colleague Keith Appleton. Sophie's assistant Rachel seems to be the prime suspect, and circumstantial evidence certainly points in her direction. Can Sophie who is up for promotion to full professor manage to clear her assistant without losing her chances for promotion. Like most cozies nowadays, romance plays a part. Sophie's boyfriends pilots a helicopter for a medical unit. His best friend Virgil is one of two detectives working the case.

The author emphasized Sophie's love of puzzles more than math.… (més)

What a way to have your life upended! Sophie is a maths professor with a boyfriend who is a helicopter pilot who does serious climbing for a pastime. A woman who Sophie believes is her friend is found shot to death in the campus library and Sophie is beyond stunned. That is until she discovers some things about her friend rather by accident. Things get beyond crazy from then on. Excellent plot with some very unusual plot twists and red herrings! The characters are clearly drawn and only too believable. Great read!
Chris Kenworthy is truly gifted as the narrator.
I won the audio in a giveaway!
