About this ebook

In a college dorm in the late Seventies, seven hallmates hold a funeral for a pet hamster, only to stumble upon a body ...

Startled but not exactly sorrowful at finding their unpopular dorm preceptor slumped atop a garbage can in the trash room, Keith and his friends can’t resist investigating, and set to questioning a quirky set of potential witnesses and suspects. Could the killer be a fellow student? A member of the faculty or staff? The provost? Might it even be one of their friends?

Keith and his pals must navigate college politics, unruly druggies, and lesbian separatists in order to uncover the truth.

About the author

Colette Tajemna has been an avid mystery reader since the age of eight, when she was surprised to discover that mysteries, not mythology or fairy tales, constituted the largest category of oral book reports she had presented at school. Among her favorite mystery authors are (somewhat chronologically) Dorothy L. Sayers, Margery Allingham, Josephine Tey, Sarah Caudwell, Laurie R. King, Louise Penny, and (a more recent discovery) Richard Osman. She's also enjoyed many a book by (alphabetically) Lawrence Block, Christianna Brand, Raymond Chandler, Colin Cotterill, Amanda Cross, Martha Grimes, Gregory McDonald, Adrian McKinty, Ellis Peters, Elizabeth Peters, Ruth Rendell, Georges Simenon … and on and on!


She lives with two house rabbits, neither of which is named Hemingway.
