Dead of Winter Break (A Cassandra Sato Mystery #3)

Description

It’s beginning to look a lot like murder.

Her first Christmas in Nebraska. Her boss is dead. Her dog won’t pee outside. A tree branch impaled her roof. Everything’s fine.

Dr. Cassandra Sato was looking forward to a quiet winter break. Instead she’s knee-deep in suspects, babysitting a skeleton crew of fewer than thirty students, and trying to figure out why her retired boss showed up unannounced just in time to get murdered.

The police are calling it burglary gone wrong. Cassandra isn’t buying it. Morton College has never met a crisis it couldn’t make worse.

If you like Richard Osman’s quirky ensemble casts, academic politics with real heart, and heroines with too much on their plate, this is your next holiday read.
