Annotation:In the opening paragraph of this crime novel, Saskatchewan university professor, Joanne Kilbourn receives the stunning news that one of her respected colleagues, the head of the School of Journalism, has been found dead in rather unusual, if not downright kinky, circumstances. At the same time, one of Kilbourn's students, Kellee Savage, comes to her with a charge of sexual harassment against a popular fellow student, and her best friend becomes obsessively involved with manipulative fellow teacher Tom Kelsoe. The later discovery of Kellee's body finally pushes Kilbourn into sleuthing action. Along with unravelling the intrigues and jealousies of campus life, she deals with the challenges of her romantic relationship with an Ojibway police inspector, and the adjustment of her young adopted daughter to her new family.
