Publisher Description
High school sleuths P.C. Hawke and Mackenzie Riggs quickly regret their decision to take a difficult calculus class from a tough instructor at Columbia University. But even though she's mean, Professor Dunaway certainly seems an unlikely candidate for murder. Though there are plenty of suspects, a lot of things about this case just don't add up. Jeff Woodman's lively reading multiplies the excitement of this cool, clever teenage mystery from Pulitzer Prize winner Paul Zindel.

" Professor Dunaway, a nasty math teacher, is brutally murdered and P.C. and Mackenzie are back at it, searching for clues. Mystery #5 in this series is bit more interesting and a lot less hokey than the previous adventures. Not bad at all. "

" Easy reading murder mystery. Probably good for smart middle-schoolers, but I don't really see high school kids enjoying this. "

" I'm generally not a big lover of mysteries, but this one was pretty good. Plus it was short, which was an added bonus. "
