"Readers will enjoy the Cambridge setting...There's a keep-'em-guessing plot with plenty of suspects and red herrings that get well tied up in the end"----Boston Sunday Globe

"Fun...fast paced,well written...satisfying."----Wichita Falls Times Record News

Eric MacInnes is the golden boy of Harvard Business School--until an incident in a hot tub turns him into a beau-tiful corpse. Now the B-School elders need somebody to pla-cate both Eric's parents and the Boston police. First on their list is assistant professor Wim Vermeer, whose low rank on the tenure track leaves him little room to say no. But when the "accident" starts to look more like an ingenious murder, Wire is forced to convert his ivory tower skills into rough-and-ready street smarts as fast as he can. Eric Maclnnes floated through a rarefied world of money and power, one filled with killers willing to widen their trail of blood. Wim's strategy? Cut the deal that can save his life..., and wade straight into the camp of the people who most want him dead.
