The general class of "academic" mysteries tends to have a common problem--that the depiction of academic life is, to those of us who have lived it, so wrong. What I love about the Carl Burns books (and the Sally Good books), in addition to their being very good mysteries, is that they get the setting and the atmosphere right.
