Synopsis
Professor Toby Kramer, the ambitious head of the Women's Studies Program at her local college, reluctantly admits to being Rabbi Daniel Kramer's wife. Her favorite pastime is playing tennis. Tanned and slender, she looks like an athlete, radiates confidence and projects an aura of professionalism. Then into the calm and organized life she shares with her husband enters Gordon Lieberman, a philanderer and former tennis partner, asking for help. Gordon is not only in trouble. He is trouble! Within days of his arrival, the Kramers and their small group of friends are exposed to runaway wives, murder, divorce, and domestic violence. As Toby seeks the murderer, and tries to protect the innocent, her enquiries lead her to an unflinching look at her values and recognition that all is not as it seems in her staid and quiet Jewish community. Questions of morality and justice are at the center of this provocative suspense novel. In The Rabbi's Wife Plays at Murder, Naomi Graetz decided to adhere to the old advice of writing about what she knows - - life as a rabbi's wife. She combines likable characters with a superb mystery plot, while offering the reader a voyeuristic peek into modern Jewish life.Book Details
