Everybody Loves Luther

Luther Coachman, a Dalmatian with all the sweet charm of his tribe and an undergraduate at Whiskey U., is kicked out by his jock roommates when he's outed by a bitchy queen. He turns for help to an acquaintance, Adrian Drew, a math prof at WU, who agrees to take in the Dalmatian for the semester. To the the middle-aged badger's consternation, the young man's friendship turns into something else. 

Their lives are turned upside down when Hayward Dench, an old friend and former lover of Drew's, is murdered. Dr Drew finds himself the guardian of Hayward's teen-aged son Alexis, at least for the ten days or so until the boy's mother returns. For Prof. Drew, the murder of his old friend not long after the death of his lover is serious blow, but there is more to come--now that there are two young men living in Casa de Drew.
