Description: A Question of Class is a murder mystery set in academia. The Dean of Academic Affairs at a campus on the California coast is found dead in the European Studies department. The murder weapon belongs to Franca De Giusti- a lecturer, union leader and the victim's long-time antagonist. Although testimonials and circumstantial evidence point toward Franca, Nick Fusco, the detective appointed to the case, follows a different lead. A mysterious promotion, marijuana-laced brownie crumbs, a disappeared passkey, and the victim's numerous affairs - all this and more steer Fusco away from the obvious suspect. His sudden and passionate affair with an amateur sleuth adds complication and further insight to his investigation and leads him to the culprit. However, his most unexpected discovery is the unspoken class system of the academic world.
