The victim is an atheist professor, the main suspect—who has confessed and is in custody—a Muslim foreign student, the defense attorney a Jew and the detective a born-again Christian. The New York Times says of Beinhart, "The man can really write." Read glowing reviews of the book in the Chicago Sun-Times and the San Diego Union Tribune.
