Book Description

March 12, 1983
Four rather clumsy assassins stalk the seminaries of Detroit. So far only luck stopped them from killing a priest. But time is running short, and murder lies within their vicious grasp. Who's behind this quarter of killers? An angry seminarian? A fanatical leader of an arch-conservative Catholic society? Another priest? Keen-witted Father Koesler, clerical sleuth extraordinaire, had better find the answer soon. Because he's next on the killers' list.

5.0 out of 5 stars Assault With Intent A Real Winner, January 31, 2000
By A Customer
Keinzle's, "Assault with Intent," is a great read. His understanding of the inner workings of seminary life make this novel all the more realistic. The characters portrayed--especially the priest faculty--were reminiscent of my own experiences as both student and faculty member at a seminary. The real life foibles were treated not just with humor, but also with the respect that these characters deserved.

"Assault with Intent" was the hook for me. Since then, I've read every one of the Fr. Koesler stories. Fr. Koesler and William Kienzle have become like old friends. I look forward to the next installment.

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite Fr. Koesler mystery, April 6, 1999
By A Customer
This is my all time favorite Fr. Koesler mystery, followed by "Deathbed" in which many of the same characters return. Not only is it fun to read with its bungling murderers and richly drawn characters, the scholastic setting is especially realistic. In fact, I've been to some of the places described in the book and that makes it all the more realistic to me. Well Done!
