Will Dead Week kill Cassandra's career?

VP of Student Affairs Cassandra Sato has a desk full of problems and it's not even Thanksgiving break.

A student's injury and a deaf advocacy project brings national media attention to underfunded Morton College.

Cassandra's new boss talks to her dead husband. Cassandra's mentor thinks he's a superhero in a senior citizen's body. And Cassandra, recently moved from Hawai'i, can't crack the code of what to wear during November in Nebraska.

Is there more to the Vietnam-era story of a student's death? Cassandra's search for the long-buried truth stirs up the wrath of those who want to keep the past forgotten.

If you like academic cozy mysteries with funny BFFs, hilarious student shenanigans, and small town drama, you'll like this series. Can you guess whodunit before time's up on final exams?

      In Brakenhoff’s straightforward second Cassandra Sato mystery (after 2019’s Death by Dissertation), Cassandra, the vice president of student affairs at Nebraska’s Morton College, has to deal with more than one difficult situation. Morton’s Dead Week—the week right before finals that’s intended as a “period of substantial and predictable QUIET study time”—may be disrupted by plans by some deaf students to launch a protest over what they think is inadequate accommodation by the college administration, including a possible hunger strike and class boycotts. Meanwhile, Rachel Nagle, who was one of the students contemplating protests, is injured after someone pushes her down on the ice, but she has trouble getting people to believe it wasn’t an accident. Cassandra’s sleuthing reveals a possible connection between the attack on Rachel and an older crime. Brakenhoff integrates very real concerns about how to make a college campus truly inclusive into a diverting whodunit. Fans of Jane Langton’s Homer Kelly books will be pleased.
