The Bluebook Solution

by Ceil Cleveland

Who has more power than the President of the U.S. and often makes more money? Who can get work done only if subordinates allow it? Who can make charitable gifts as tax deductions, then demand their gifts back? Who set up a state financed prostitution ring? Who paid for all of this with her life—and why? Only Charmaine Hope, amateur sleuth, health spa technician, and college student, knows the answers. Charm's sass makes everyone around her crazy, but her smarts and intuition become indispensable to the Suffolk County Police when part of a body washes up on the North Shore of Long Island. A hilarious send-up of university bureaucracy and politics, this literary suspense novel, set on a fictional campus, follows Charm as she untangles clues to the mysterious disappearance of its unpopular president.
