From the Inside Flap
bored with his clerical duties, is enlisted by Police Chief Hugh Lanigan to set his scholar's mind to a drunk-driving accident that looks like murder. Victor Joyce, a local college professor infamous both for his ambition and extracurricular activities, had been drinking heavily the night of the crash. But a witness who passed by the wreck insists that the victim was not dead, just unconscious. Rabbi Small learns that quite a number of "innocent" citizens drove down the seldom-used road on that rainy night. Any one of them could have had it in for the not-so-revered professor . . .
From Kirkus Reviews
After nine previous novels, it's no wonder Rabbi David Small has had it with the fractious congregation at Barnard's Crossing, Massachusetts, and is looking for another line of work. First, though, there's one minor distraction: the death of tenure-hungry Victor Joyce of Windermere Christian College, apparently killed in a drunk-driving accident, but actually murdered sometime after Dr. Abner Gorfinkle examined the wreck and pronounced him alive. Will the rabbi be able to talk Chief Hugh Lanigan out of fingering the police suspect-- upstanding Mordecai Jacobs, Joyce's competition for tenure at Windermere--and sort out the untidy subplots to finger the obvious killer in time to tender his resignation? Is the Pope Polish? Sketchy work from a pro who, like his hero, seems to have his mind on something else all through the book. The murder mystery is less interesting, presumably by design, than the question of what's next in store for the rabbi. -- Copyright ©1991, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
