Monday takes Rabbi David Small on a private exodus to Israel for a much needed rest. But as usual, trouble follows the Rabbi. While his congregation at home is busy plotting his dismissal, the Rabbi is up against the Wall in an international incident involving a young American student, Israeli intelligence, and a group of Arab terrorists with murder on their minds...

Murder is not kosher! When David Small, our favorite rabbi and most unorthodox detective, becomes enmeshed in the murder of a fellow teacher at Windemere Christian College, he discovers things are not at all kosher around the school. From the moment the bomb goes off in the dean's office, everyone is under suspicion.

The fifth in a series of definitive editions of Rabbi David Small mysteries by award-winning author Harry Kemelman!

When an unpleasant member of the Barnard's Crossing congregation dies mysteriously, placing a troubled young man under suspicion, Rabbi Small tackles the case with Talmudic reasoning and insight.

Had the murder victim not been such a notorious anti-semite, Rabbi Small might never have become involved. But when several members of his congregation become suspects, Rabbi Small is forced to match wits with the killer.
