Description
Rabbi David Small has found his ideal position as Professor of Judaic Studies at Windermere College, a post that allows him to focus on his passion for Judaism. His days are spent on campus, available for any student seeking to explore the faith. This quiet academic life is disrupted when Professor Kent, an elderly English professor, vanishes during a snowy Thanksgiving weekend only to be discovered dead in a snowdrift. The circumstances suggest a heart attack, but Rabbi Small is unconvinced. He suspects that a man as self-absorbed as Professor Kent must have accumulated enemies, and that the professor's demise was no accident.
As the rabbi delves into the case, he uncovers the resentments and grudges harbored by those around the deceased. With a killer potentially lurking among his new colleagues, Rabbi Small must navigate a complex web of human motivations to uncover the truth behind Professor Kent's death, a truth that the initial assumption of natural causes conveniently overlooks.
