Princeton Imposter
Princeton Mystery / McLeod Dulaney Series, No. 5
by Ann Waldron
McLeod Dulaney, a Florida journalist, teaches writing at Princeton University one semester a year.
One of her best writing students is Gary Pierre. He has enrolled at the university under a pseudonym to avoid
legal charges from his home out West. A graduate student alerts the school authorities about Greg's deception:
that Greg is really Bob Billings, convicted of drug possession and in violation of his parole. Greg protests his
innocence. The graduate student is found murdered in a chemistry lab. Greg becomes the prime suspect. McLeod
believes in his innocence. After a second murder follows, McLeod comes to Greg's rescue and must find the real
murderer to clear Greg.
This is an entertaining, quick read. The characters are likeable and interesting such as you might meet at any
academic gathering. The locale of Princeton and its environs are described in such detail that the reader can
picture himself there. The atmosphere of the university is steeped in the traditions typical of all academics
with their rivalries, egos and eccentricities.
Included are several delicious recipes. |
