Publisher's Synopsis
At sleepy Malahide College Ed and Elaine Ellis are a dysfunctional academic couple. James Orfus and Janet Treadwell are a kinky student one. They don't know each other--these four--but they're brought together by Professor Yvonne Ellis, known for her cruel intellectual strictures. Somehow the five of them--Ed, Elaine, Jim, Janet, and Yvonne--create a campus murder tragic in scope and terrific in scandal. It is said that Fate does not attack but creeps. Nothing better illustrates this dark comic truth than Tom McBride's disturbing but delicious novel HOMICIDE AT MALAHIDE.
