When Dr. Thomas Whitaker, a renowned and controversial history professor at St. Augustine University, is found dead in his office, the initial assumption is a tragic accident.

Caught in a web of deception, betrayal, and ambition, Emma must navigate a maze of colleagues, students, and administrators, each with their own secrets and motives. But as she gets closer to the truth, she finds herself facing a powerful and shadowy organization that will stop at nothing to keep their secrets buried-and Emma's own life might be the next on the line.
The Professor's Last Lecture is a gripping academic thriller that explores the dark underbelly of academia, where the quest for knowledge collides with the thirst for power, and where some secrets are worth killing for.
