Murder at the AECT Conference Jennifer Banas, Bill Freese, Sung Hee Park

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

With travelers from all over the state, country, and world, there is a great deal of room for anonymity. Thank goodness for the name tags, otherwise, we would never have known who the body in the lobby was. But it was an AECT name tag, so we knew it was one of ours.

Who could have done such a thing? Who could possibly become so angry with an AECT member, the kindest, most gentle people in the world. Fortunately, there happened to be a detective's convention on the third floor. One of the greater of the detectives volunteered to help us out.

There was not much time to investigate, since we needed the crime to be solved before the next session. We could not possibly concentrate on our work with an unsolved murder hanging over our heads. We like closure before we move on.

Realizing that time was limited, our investigative guest decided to skip the search for clues and go totally on instinct. The great detective spun on his heals, pointed with the tip of his Meerschaum pipe, and declared, "the presenter did it."

It was obvious that the presenter had done it. It was a perfect guise. No one would suspect her since she appeared to be at the front of the room at all times....or was she?

Ah, everyone thought, just as I suspected.
