About this listen

Still battling each other and the blue wall, NYPD detectives Chiara Corelli and P. J. Parker catch a new murder case. The victim, a gay man, is posed with a rosary in his hands, the smell of incense in the air, and Gregorian chants playing in the background.

While Corelli and Parker search for leads, Kate Burke, the lesbian speaker of the city council, asks for an update on the investigation. Thinking Burke is playing politics, Corelli ignores the request. In the meantime, two more bodies are found, both laid out in the same way.

Pressured by the chief, Corelli goes to Kate's office, where a photograph of the speaker with a group of friends catches her eye. Corelli recognizes the three victims and, to her horror, three others. Suddenly the case becomes personal.

Fearing a serial killer is picking off the people in the photograph, fearing the next victim will be someone she loves, Corelli races to find the murderer before he kills again.

Enjoyed the evolution of the main characters in this series. Hopefully, the third book in this series will continue the relationship between partners being more trusting with each other. Also hoping the romance evolving with Chiara will continue. Fabulous narration with that superb tone!

Great Character Evolution And Well Written!

Wonderful follow up to book one. I enjoy this series as much as JD Robb’s In Death books. AbbyCraden and Susan Erickson are my favorite narrators.

It's a refreshing change from the formulaic approach many follow. I really love the character development and the "mystery" aspect is intriguing.

With Abby Craden’s narration and a nail biting story, this was a pleasure to listen to.

Kept me on my toes..

Wish the author wouldn’t have her main character take some absurd risks. Or kill off some nice people for the sake of the plot. Or have so much combative dialogue between main character and her homicide detective-in-training. So even though fast paced, edge of seat, it’s ruining my escapism goal to have the story be so constantly stressful. I would prefer some relaxing interludes in my fiction - where the characters are respectful to each other and enjoying their lives. Maybe, it’s a New York thing that there’s so much yelling and conflict?

Gripping series, but not quite five stars

Great storyline, well developed characters, excellent narration. Not your typical lesbian romance book which is refreshing.

Really enjoyed all of it. Story line was excellent, although the police line every morning was a bit over the top, but then I am not in that position so I don't know. I loved the narration. Can't wait for the next one.

Excellent
