From Publishers Weekly
In McInerny's rambling 10th mystery set at the University of Notre Dame (after 2004's
Green Thumb), the football coach, an English professor, the provost and the dean of arts and letters all receive alarming bomb threat letters. The university administration doesn't want publicity, so they call upon PI Phil Knight and his brother, Roger, a Catholic studies professor and former detective. Alumni politicking, student muckraking and faculty bickering escalate from a wastebasket set aflame to the firebombing of a professor's car before the tumult culminates in a murder. The Knights put their formidable intellects to the case, with triumphant results that should satisfy series fans.

From Booklist
One wouldn't think Notre Dame's placid campus would be a hotbed of murder, mayhem, and even terrorism, but it has been, at least since McInerny debuted his latest series starring the Knight brothers. Phillip Knight is a private investigator, and his brother, Roger, is a Catholic studies professor. This time threatening notes have been delivered around campus, even to the new football coach. The Knight brothers identify a suspect, but when the first explosion rocks the campus, their man is in custody, an ironclad alibi. McInerny's tenth Notre Dame mystery is a typically rewarding and heady mix of mayhem, sly humor, and campus politics.
