Here one morning the bedmakers and gyps, clamouring for admission on the last day of term were admitted to find, lying across their path, the body of one of the College porters. The murder of the porter begins a mystery which deepens when it is found that the unpopular Dean of the college is missing. The search for the murderer is conducted in part by the police and partly by the Vice President of Fisher College Sir Richard Cherrington, an eminent but slightly eccentric archaeologist with a penchant for amateur detection. 'The Cambridge Murders' is a story of murder at high table, of death and detection amid good living and scholarship. By Dilwyn Rees aka Professor Glyn Edmund Daniel (1914-86), Welsh scientist and archaeologist specialising in the European Neolithic period and who fancied himself as a detective novelist. He was appointed Disney Professor of Archaeology in 1974 and edited the academic journal 'Antiquity' from 1958 to 1985. In addition to early efforts to popularise archaeology and antiquity on radio and television, he edited several popular studies of the field. A scarce book, by a Cambridge insider.
