A psychological researcher who moonlights as a clairvoyant psychic with grieving survivors is found murdered.

Reuben's killer also murders his co-researcher and suspicion falls on fellow psychic Frank Mclean and tarot reader Justine Skinner.

When a body discovered in a wooded area is found already embalmed, the logical conclusion is that a murder victim must have been cremated in his place.

The suspected identity of the cremated corpse keeps changing as attempts are made on the lives of two of the students involved in the case are made.

The day after an alcoholic college professor who killed a young girl in a drunken accident is released from prison and returns home, he is run over by his own car.

While Benison College is being renovated, the desiccated body of a student who disappeared 15 years earlier is found in an attic and linked to Seager's murder.
