"Brilliantly-written and highly entertaining, a must read..." The Prairies Book Review
"A charming blend of academic inspection and social commentary that weaves an engrossing personal perspective into a blend of social observation and evolving romance." D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review
Meet Rowena Halley, a former human rights activist turned academic. Rowena thought teaching on US college campuses would be a lot safer than interviewing torture victims in Russia. Boy, was she wrong.
Rowena quickly gets caught up in campus intrigue that threatens to turn deadly. Meanwhile, the life and lover she thought she’d left behind in Moscow might not be so firmly back in the past as she’d believed.
Written by a Russian professor with extensive insider knowledge of the topic, these books take a deep dive into the dark underbelly of American higher education. Serious and satirical in turn, they combine mystery, dark humor, and a touch of romance in a searingly funny examination of contemporary American and Russian society.
*Content warning*: These books contain adult language—and have the one-star reviews to prove it. Worse than that, they have been accused of peddling philosophy and political science. You’ve been warned.
