The Weight of the Evidence

Inspector Appleby arrives at Nesfield University to investigate the very strange death of Professor Pluckrose, struck on the head by a falling meteorite. The Inspector is there because a) it didn’t fall from the sky but from the top of a tower and b) the tower overlooks a courtyard where, as everyone at the University knew, the Professor was in the habit of taking his breaks. From amazon dot com: “Drawn in to the suffocating world of university jealousies and obsessions, will Appleby reveal the truth… or has he finally met his intellectual match?”
