Booklist
This likable mystery, set in 1995, stars Sammy Greene, a “freckle-faced” communications major at a conservative college. She also hosts a daily talk show on the campus radio station, encouraging callers to discuss subjects that might be a bit outré for the mainstream. When she discovers that a professor has been murdered, she picks up the scent of real journalism and decides to investigate. But she doesn’t count on exposing the dark side of the college in the process. The authors have created a series-worthy heroine who has plenty of room to grow. Fans of light mysteries with a hard edge will enjoy this one. --David Pitt
