Thia was actually four mysteries in one that kind of came together in the end. It was very interesting seeing our protagonist send her student off to find real answers to three old murder cases only to have the student become a murder case herself. Then our heroine has to pick up the story and find the answers herself and she does but only by putting herself into mortal danger as well. But in the end she does find them as well as answer to a question in her own life. (

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0380790025, Mass Market Paperback)

A Pulitzer Prize-winning ex-reporter and journalism teacher at ivy-covered Thorndyke University, Henrietta "Henrie O" Collins demands of her students the same steadfast dedication to the truth that was the cornerstone of her own illustrious career. So when beautiful, ambitious Maggie Winslow decides to investigate a trio of hitherto unresolved local crimes, Henrie O urges her to pursue the story with uncommon vigor.

But the gifted future journalist's zeal may have cost her her life. The next day Maggie's corpse is discovered in Lovers' Lane--the very site of one of the unsolved mysteries the extraordinary young woman was exploring at the time of her brutal, premature death. The police and the Thorndyke powers-that-be are rabidly against Henrie O's involvement in the case. But, for Maggie's sake, the stubborn, sixtysomething investigator is determined to dredge up a past everyone seems to want to keep buried even if it means placing herself firmly in a relentless killer's path.
