CAPACITY FOR MURDER A Professor Bradshaw Mystery, Book 3

When there is a mysterious death apparently caused by electricity, a relatively new technology, whom do you call? Electrical forensic investigator Professor Bradshaw, of course. Malcolm Hillgartner delivers Book 3 in the series with all the graceful charm of a stuffy, highly knowledgeable academic, circa 1903. While teaching at the University of Washington, Bradshaw is called to Dr. Hornsby’s Healing Sands Sanitarium to investigate an apparent electrical malfunction resulting in the death of a young man. Taking a group of students on an unscheduled field trip to the ocean, Bradshaw investigates while enduring the health spa’s strict rules, eating nearly inedible fermented food, and confronting his feelings for a young woman. Hillgartner handles the cleverly plotted twists and red herrings with finesse. S.J.H. © AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2013]
