Successful professor Nick Hoffman finds his secure, happy, college-town life changed forever after a nightmarish encounter with police. But even when that horrible night is over, life doesn't return to normal. Someone is clearly out to destroy him. Nick and his partner Stefan Borowski face an escalating series of threats that lead to a brutal and stunning confrontation.A novel of suspense set in the academic world, Assault with a Deadly Lie probes the disturbing psychological impact of slander, harassment, stalking, police brutality, and the loss of personal safety. What will Nick do when his world threatens to collapse? How can he reestablish order in a suddenly chaotic life?
Assault with a Deadly Lie, the eighth installment of Lev Raphael's Nick Hoffman Mysteries, propels the series to a new level of danger and intrigue as Nick and Stefan are catapulted out of their tranquil existence by shocking accusations. Finalist, Midwest Book Award for Mystery/Thriller Fiction, Midwest Independent Publishers Association "A riveting great read for mystery/suspense fans, author Lev Raphael once again documents his impressive gifts as a storyteller, holding the reader's rapt attention from beginning to end with unexpected plot twists and surprise twists."--Jack Mason, Midwest Book Review "Raphael portrays with frightening power the wrenching experience of victimization by the corporatized, PR-prioritized groves of academia, where both men teach, and by local authorities militarized into SWAT teams practicing police brutality. . . . The compelling core of this unusual novel is Raphael's depiction of the agonizing reality of victims' shame, in which someone 'feels doubly exposed talking about the violation' and so says nothing."--Booklist "Professor Nick Hoffman learns that even tenure can't guarantee real security."--Kirkus Reviews

Sooo soft! Like a cat you can pet whenever you want
I have hand disability along w peripheral neuropathy and I'm always in some degree of pain and i cannot differentiate much with my fingers up to my shoulders. Even with that i can tell it's super soft and my husband says it is too. I wake up a lot from pain and swelling in my hands. I also have to wait hours for my hands swelling to go down in order to get out of bed. My life is challenging! The feel of blankets like this one help soothe me a titch through comforting me. I'm glad i bought it and would buy more when needed. I definitely recommend this blanket BUT I have not washed and dried it yet: that will be the real test,as some get the fibers burned and they mat together then,but there's no way to fix it. Then it is relegated to cat blanket/ spare bed blanket, lol. When washing this type of blanket i don't use fabric softener or dry it with heat: both will mat it up. Air drying is best or do no heat . The coloring is gorgeous! I got the gray tie dye. It's soft like a cat you can pet when's you want to,too and it will never get annoyed with you 🙂!

Luxury!
I bought for this for someone in a nursing home. She absolutely loves it!! It is so soft! I am surprised how well it has held up because the nursing home uses very harsh detergent when they wash. It is still a delightful blanket!

Buttery Soft, Lightweight, & Warm
You'll be hard pressed to find a more comfortable throw at a better price. I need to get to the couch quick, if I want dibs on this bad boy. My pups love it as well. Soft, light, and toasty warm. Pamper yourself.

So soft and snuggly!
I bought this throw in grey last week and I've only been able to use it once! Since my cats discovered how soft and snuggly it was, they've been laying on it! So, I just ordered another one for me, and this one I will not share!! And you certainly can't beat the price! Highly recommend!!

Good for the price
Love the feel of the blanket and the warmth. If you wash it regularly though, it will start to Matt a bit. Good price on it though
