The Probability of Murder by Ada Madison

Finished circa 5/16

Although there is some discussion of probability and statistics - or at least about a statistics course, it has nothing to do with the murder. Having murdered the least popular member of the faculty in the first book, this time she gets Sophie's good friend, the head librarian - who turns out to have a Past - with an intentional capital "P."

Meanwhile back at the ranch, I think I forgot to mention that Sophie's hunk of a boyfriend is a helicopter pilot for a medevac outfit and a rabid ice climber, at least that's what I think they called this particular brand of suicidal insanity. Rock climbing, at its best, is hardly a safe activity - but these uber macho dudes go out and climb rocks in winter - with ice and snow and stuff. So, instead of being supportive and helpful, this time Bruce (is that a macho boyfriend name, or what?) is off on the ice in a blizzard or avalanche -- or both.
