| Pamela Thomas-Graham s beguiling and atmospheric Ivy League novels simmer with hot button issues -- and unveil layers of malice and murder inside the life academic. Harvard economics professor Nikki Chase is intent on becoming the first tenured African-American woman in her department. But with her affinity for solving crimes， she may make her name in a place where the highest levels of human intellect can court the lowest impulses of the human heart.PUBLISH OR PERISHA working weekend at a Princeton conference is just what Nikki needs to deflect the pre-holiday pressures -- both professional and personal -- that are closing in on her back in Cambridge. And there will be down time， too， at a party honoring professor Earl Stokes， her old friend and mentor. Rumors abound that Stokes， a Princeton superstar， may depart for Harvard， a change that would stir up as much controversy as his new bestselling book on race issues. When Stokes s body is discovered among the smoldering ruins of the not-yet-completed black-studies building， a shattered Nikki refuses to accept the police findings that the death was accidental. And among the ashes she will uncover a murderous agenda with ominous implications for not only the Princeton campus but Harvard as well. |
