Just finished "Tuesday the Rabbi Saw Red", by Harry Kemelman. The fifth book in the "Rabbi Small" series. In this one, the Rabbi teaches a "Jewish Thought" class at a local college and gets involved when the English professor he shares an office with is murdered. Enjoyable, although perhaps not quite as good as the earlier books in the series. An interesting mirror on how things have changed since the early 1970s when this book was written: it's considered merely a minor matter that a college professor carries on a sexual relationship with one of his students!
