Unknown classic

A charming, learned murder mystery by an author who deserves to be better known than she is. Walsh blends a contemporary setting (a Cambridge college in the 1990s) with a style reminiscent of such grande dames as Dorothy Sayers and Josephine Tey. Rich character development and some intriguing historical asides.
