Finished "Friday the Rabbi Slept Late", by Harry Kemelman. This is the first book in the "Rabbi Small" series of detective stories. Rabbi David Small is a scholarly young man who is finding it difficult to fit into the Jewish community of the small town of Barnard's Crossing. He would prefer to spend his days in study and theological debate, but his congregation expect a social secretary for their community. An opportunity to use his skills for logical deduction and solve a mystery arises when a young woman is found dead in the Rabbi's own car. Excellent, and I look forward to reading the rest of the series.
