the long version

When the unpopular president of King's College, Dublin, begins getting threatening anonymous letters, he asks retired professor John Daly to investigate. Unfortunately for Daly and his friend, Garda Inspector Mike Kelley, there is no shortage of suspects -- the entire faculty loathes the president, who is cruel, arrogant, and a bully. A witty look at academe in the 1950's and full of quotable observations.
