Vero Beach, FL—Continuing the adventures of his beloved characters, Florida author Nelson Cover reveals the third book of the Sessions University series, All Mortal Greatness. It is a fast-paced, technologically advanced mystery that will leave readers begging for more.

"Microscopic attention to detail, a keen sense of suspense, and sidebars of medical/university/criminology information make this a resounding success. Watch this author rise! Highly recommended." —Grady Harp, Amazon Top 100 Hall of Fame Reviewer, 5-Stars

Just as everything seems to be returning to normal and protagonist Thomas Simpson is beginning a new job, a prominent member of the university administration is murdered on his walk home along the campus drive. Thomas, along with Mark Berger and Zoltan Vastag, quickly identify a prime suspect, a family member of a previously murdered administrator, seeking vengeance. The three must join forces again to solve the mystery of this unwarranted murder and reveal the corruption that weaves its way through the university's highest ranks. 

"Cover's continuing series takes a peek behind the ivory tower to the nuts and bolts of running a top-level university. Readers who like mystery thrillers, stories about contemporary academia, and even some dark academia fans, may like this series of novels." —Kathryn Picard, Librarian Book Connoisseur, 5-Stars

"The bottom line for universities is that just as in society, those in power often suffer no consequences for their misdeeds and can be as evil and corrupt as the rest of the real world, regardless of their competence, charm, and charisma," Nelson Cover says. "Sessions University, existing in a parallel universe, allows the reader to witness the tragedy of ambition and malfeasance in a world beyond but relevant to the contemporary, seeing the truth about how ambition corrupts." 

"This novel masterfully blends suspense, academic intrigue, and complex characters, making it a must-read for fans of Dan Brown." —John Kelly, Detroit Free Press

All Mortal Greatness is filled with humor and larger-than-life characters in addition to the real-world issues that it illustrates. It explores the concepts of animation and greatness, and what can happen when they are embraced by the wrong people. Fans of thriller, mystery, or academia-themed stories will love this book!
