A Degree to Die For (University Police Series, 2)
ByPublisher Description
Tig Weston's beloved classics department is evolving, expanding its course offerings to entice a new and more diverse generation of students. Not everyone is willing to accept these changes, though. Tempers flare, and when the body of a prestigious alum turns up outside Denny Hall, Tig doubts she can bring her department through the crisis.
Sergeant Adriana Kent always pictured classical scholars as tweedy bookworms, but suddenly her campus police officers are being called to Denny on a near-daily basis.
Arguments in the halls, threatening emails, and even a fistfight, for God's sake. What should have been the most sedate department on campus seems to be going through a volatile transformation. And the most visible proponent of that transformation? The decidedly unstuffy and very sexy Professor Antigone Weston.
Kent and Tig seem to be on opposing sides in this battle until the stakes become more personal. But before they can even think about a future together, they'll need to fight to protect the campus from a killer.

“Karis Walsh has released book two, A Degree to Die For, in her University Police series, and it had me curious from the start. Even though it could be read as a standalone, I wouldn’t recommend it – there are too many important little titbits that would be missed, and therefore, the overall enjoyment could be compromised. Plus, book one is also rather good, so it's worth looking at.
Kent heads up the campus police and thinks she is happy keeping her head down and staying on the periphery of those around her. That all changes when she meets Tig, head of the classics department, and the chemistry spark between the two women. When one of Tig’s professors is found murdered, Kent can’t help but pull Tig in, asking for her insight, and then feeling the need to protect her.
Tig, a strong-willed, highly independent professor, can’t hide from her growing feeling towards Kent, but she also knows that her time at the university might be ending. Her department is falling apart, and her career might go with it. Still, she chooses to trust in her feeling for Kent, and side by side, they follow the leads until the murderer is apprehended.
A Degree to Die For is not only sweet but also intriguing. There is witty banter being thrown around by the protagonists, and the side characters, and the laugh-out-loud moments help soften what could be quite dark themes. Walsh does such an extraordinary job of describing the campus, the architecture, and the surroundings. It is as if the reader is right there with the characters.
This is a great series to get into if mystery and romance are your thing.
I received an ARC from Bold Strokes Books via NetGalley for my honest review.”
