Description
Life seems to be just about perfect at the Massasoit College of Art in the picturesque village of Mellingham. Certainly things couldn't be much better for Preston H. Mattson, chairman of the painting department, as the students prepare for a show honoring his work. But there are potential problems as well. Work-study student Hank Vinnio is a surprisingly gifted artist and his talent may threaten the teachers' sense of superiority. New to the area and without close friends, Vinnio has at least one enemy--and perhaps more.Another member of the community sows unrest and fear just by his presence. Chickie Morelli appears to be indifferent to the effect he has on people while he lingers on the sidelines, watching and waiting.When someone is murdered at the college, Chief of Police Joe Silva must study both art and diplomacy as he searches for the killer in a crime that envelopes both town and gown.This is number 2 in the Mellingham series. Number 3 is "Family Album."
