Sheila Connolly - Reunion with Death

Laura Shumway couldn’t say why she’d agreed to go on the class reunion trip to Italy. What she didn’t expect to discover was the dead body of esteemed professor Anthony Gilbert.Gilbert had had a long and illustrious career at the college. Now retired to Italy, and still disarmingly handsome, he appeared as a surprise guest speaker. As a young professor all those years ago, Gilbert used his position and looks to seduce and then cast aside many of his young and impressionable students, and at least some of the women on this trip had been hurt by his false promises of love—the kind of hurt that runs deep and may have given any number of them a motive for murder.Before the polizia or carabiniere get involved, Laura and a few trusted classmates set out to solve the murder on their own. With the help of some influential locals and good old-fashioned detective work, they’re soon led to the conclusion that one of their classmates might be a killer—and what started as a trip to see how far they’d all come may turn into a stark lesson about just how far one of them would go.
