Two crime-fighting South-Asian cousins, Leela and Meena Rao are back on the scene of multiple killings in this compelling murder mystery by Kamakshi Murti, author of Murders Most Matronly. The cousins' ambition is to emulate Christie's Jane Marple - in this latest story, they become embroiled in a series of gruesome homicides. After a bloody discovery at the prestigious Anderson College of star quarterback Sean O'Flaherty, staff and students are drawn into the lives of drug-consumed, Ivy League collegians. When a second body is found, that of a popular Zimbabwean TA in the African Studies department, the cousins must establish how and why these two students have become inextricably linked. As more killings come to light, they seem to point towards radicalism, but are they as straightforward as they seem or is someone trying to distract from the real motive? Faced with a surfeit of suspects, will Leela and Meena be able to obtain justice for the heinous crimes and reveal the truth?

Is academia's ivory tower immune to murder and mayhem? Leela and Meena, my feisty 76-year-old South-Asian women take up their favorite hobby once again: sleuthing when a popular athlete and an exchange student from Zimbabwe are murdered on the campus of a prestigious liberal arts college. Leela and Meena get a letter from Madhu, the daughter of a close friend and an Assistant Professor at the college, to assist in the investigation. Persons of interest range from the baseball coach to a corrupt dean and a homophobic professor. But why would the killer bludgeon one of the victims to death, then decapitate him?

"A coveted invitation to a highbrow conference at Oxford is way up there on medieval history professor Dotsy Lamb's bucket list. With scholars from three continents and an honest-to-goodness ghost floating by during the welcoming dinner, the Lingering Effects of the King Arthur Tales on Life in Elizabethan England promises a lively symposium. Until one of the scheduled speakers is found dead. Glastonbury contrarian Bram Fitzwaring planned to produce a set of ancient bones to prove to the snooty, dlsbelieving history buffs that the owner of the legendary sword of Excalibur was no myth. But it isn't King Arthur's life that has Dotsy ferreting out clues--it's Fitzwaring's demise from a suspicious case of low blood sugar. Then someone close to her is shot, outraging Dotsy...while somewhere in the hushed, hallowed halls of Oxford, a killer patiently waits to turn her into the next antiquity."--Page [4] of cover.

Tom Evers, a young college professor, reluctantly becomes involved in a desperate search for a vicious serial killer who murders college women for sexual gratification. During his investigation, he comes to the disturbing realization that he and his wife may be in danger, and that the killer may be a member of the faculty. As an insider who is well known on campus, Tom uncovers information that is not available to the police. This eventually enables him to identify the murderer. Blood Stained Ivory will have a special appeal for those who appreciate the unusual and the unexpected. The setting adds an extra dimension. The portrayal of the university in remarkably realistic detail and the strong characterization provide a view of the ivory tower from a unique perspective. The plot explores several important social issues, and the good natured banter which appears in the dialogue introduces some comic relief into an otherwise grim tale.

Professor Emeritus Alex Chandler returns to his alma mater to attend his alumni reunion and discovers a university vastly different from the one he had known: graduate students burdened with heavy student- loan debt facing a lack of teaching opportunities, tenure-track positions being replaced by part-time and adjunct positions, "road scholars" forced to hold several low-paying teaching jobs in their struggle to make ends meet, online courses eliminating teaching positions, and an aging faculty reluctant or refusing to retire. Alex discovers that older tenured faculty have died under suspicious circumstances. Are these deaths accidental? If not, who is responsible, what could their motives be, and why are only certain faculty being targeted? Alex's search for the truth places himself and others in danger. There are many twists and turns before the truth finally comes out but not before there are dire consequences for Alex and his compatriots.
