Murder in the Rue Dumas is by M.L. Longworth. The second book in the Verlaque and Bonnet realistic fiction mystery series. When the director of the theology department is found dead before awarding a very prestigious fellowship, Verlaque comes in and has to decide which of the tiny cabal of academics he has as suspects is capable of murder. A worthy second chapter of this charming mystery series. The plot is well written, and the description of the setting makes one want to book a flight to Provence.
Ratings: 9th grade - 8 out of 10 - AC (some mature thematic content).
