<DIV><B>At Oxford, a rash of crime puts Dodgson under suspicion of murder</B><BR /><BR /> The world of academia is hardly a hotbed of crime. And although scholars at the University of Oxford may debate the assassination of Caesar or the execution of Socrates, a modern criminal has no place within the school&rsquo;s walls. And yet, as the reverend Charles Dodgson is horrified to learn, there is a thief within the college of Christ Church. The wine cellar has been ransacked, the faculty has been robbed, and a&#160;<a>female student is being threatened by a blackmailer.</a>&#160;It falls to Dodgson&mdash;better known as Lewis Carroll&mdash;to unmask the thief with the help of his dear friend Arthur Conan Doyle.<BR /><BR /> The campus crimes quickly escalate until the university&rsquo;s hallowed halls are stained with blood. When suspicion of murder falls at Dodgson&rsquo;s feet, it is up to Doyle to clear his friend&rsquo;s name&mdash;with the brilliance and style befitting the man who created Sherlock Holmes.<BR /></DIV>
