About this series

A seemingly well-organized series of break-ins occurred on the same night there was a city-wide museum workers' strike in Paris, France; a coincidence or an opportunity? The famous Musée d'Orsay was hit the hardest with most of their van Gogh paintings and Degas bronzes taken from their "theft-proof" frames and cases.

Then the artwork was being sent back, and there were Greek letters painted on them. Why would they be returned, and what did the Greek letters mean?

Mathematics Professor Alfred Dunningham, PhD, noted for solving mysteries with mathematics, is brought to Paris. He determines that the Greek letters also mean numbers, leading him to a special 11-digit sequence, and the French National Police rush to the Pere Lachaise Cemetery where more bronzes were found. The Police know whom to nab, but their suspect is nowhere to be found; was some advance notice given?

    Murders in Sydney: Mathematics Professor Alfred Dunningham, PhD, #1

    There are three murders in high-profile locations around Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, in one week, and each victim has a similar tattoo on his arm. There's no evidence of struggle; the news is front-page headlines, and the Police Commissioner is desperate to make an arrest. Unable to make any headway, the Police invite Mathematics Professor Alfred Dunningham, PhD, to come to Sydney to help them. Besides teaching mathematics, he gives seminars worldwide on "Detective Work Made Easier Through Mathematics." He helps the Police make sense of the pieces of the puzzle; they find their suspect and arrest him. Sydney residents feel more at peace when the newspaper headlines announce the arrest. But another body is found, and it fits the same pattern as the previous murders. Do they have the right person in custody? The professor knows, and it's shocking when he names the real killer.

    Disappearances in the Mediterranean: Mathematics Professor Alfred Dunningham, PhD, #2

    One passenger on a cruise in the Mediterranean Sea is disappearing after each day in port; there seems to be connection between the four of them. Cruise line security is beefed up, and Interpol is brought on board to investigate. Nothing unusual is found, although one of the investigators thinks he's found a mathematical connection. Professor Alfred Dunningham, in Paris at a math symposium, is toasted for his work in solving the Famous Sites Murders in Sydney, Australia. His phone rings, and on a conference call with Interpol, the ship's captain, and the cruise line CEO, they plead with him to join the ship and help them solve the mystery. He and his wife fly to meet and board ship, and given a suite on the 10th deck.  There is some similarity to the Sydney case, but the Professor dismisses that notion—"Too obvious; would look like copy cat," he says. The cruise is almost over; will the Professor solve the case in time?
