Murder, Magic, and Mystery Patricia E Flinn

Murder, magic, and mystery cast their spell in this fast-paced tale set in a 250- year-old country house that is haunted by the benevolent spirits of former residents. Krista Brennan, a philosophy professor, lives in the house with her beloved Golden Retriever, Bud. Her quiet life is thrown into turmoil after the brutal murder of one of her favorite students who is found strangled in the college's library. Famous British detective Inspector Pequod Dyxx, his psychic wife and crime-solving partner, Evangeline, and their faithful dog, Albert, are summoned to investigate the shocking crime. Suspects include an angry, jealous boyfriend, a weird next-door neighbor who collects pornography, and a brilliant student obsessed with the writings of German philosopher and nihilist, Arthur Schopenhauer. A literary mystery with satiric and philosophical musings, Murder, Magic and Mystery is thought-provoking and richly entertaining.
