The Man Who Loved Pie

By Karl El-Koura
The Man Who Loved Pie by Karl El-Koura digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

An English professor, shot dead in his office.

His neighbor, a professor of mathematics, who discovered the body and called the police.  And is the most likely suspect.

A police detective, seemingly more interested in the apple pie at the local diner than in solving the case.

A violent dispute over academic disciplines?  Or something more prosaic, and more sinister? Discover the answers in this quirky murder mystery short story.
