The Harvard Murders
Robert J. Mrazek
Coming in February 2025
American landscape on the brink of war.
It’s the fall of 1937 and real-life Harvard roommates Jimmy Rousmaniere and Jack Kennedy have returned to Cambridge for their sophomore year. At nineteen, Jimmy is a superb athlete who lives for competition and is still innocent in the ways of the world. At twenty, JFK is charismatic, funny, intellectually curious, and already a natural leader. Having had the last rites read over him twice in his childhood, he now lives for the moment.
As the college year unfolds, and a national specter of war looms in the background, an act of hideous cruelty followed by the disappearance of a beautiful young Irish immigrant sets in motion a terrifying nightmare as Jimmy and Jack are forced to confront a predator who might live in their midst.
