Autobiography of an Agoraphobic

Book excerpt: The irrepressible Professor Simon Fraser and his young Assistant Tom McElrath are once again involved in a murder investigation after their earlier adventures in the cases of The Borgia Blade and A Little Pinch of Death, but before they encountered A Ladder of Death and The Seven Keys of Sara Seldom. The amazing Greek seer and fortune-teller, Millicent Zacharias is back, assisting Lieutenant Campbell, Sheriff Ransom Fall, Simon, and Simon's good friend, Prentice Dodd, in tracking down a triple murderer. Is he a member of the Bachelor's Club? Will the members of the Detective Club (Fraser, McElrath, Zacharias, Lieutenant Campbell, Prentice Dodd and their new members Charlie and Ginny Smith) be an effective counterforce to the five men (one of them a murderer), single or widowed, who have joined together late in life to relive moments of their middle and high school years? How much risk is there for the members of the Detective Club? For that matter, how much peril do the members of the Bachelor's Club face too? There's bound to be blood, murder and hazard all around!
