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.

This is as good as the first book with a nice follow through in the character development as well as great murder mystery. I’m immediately onto the next!

Excellent sequel

I simply cannot think of a better combination of performance and story. At points it felt bit slow, but the narration complimented in a perfect way. Characters were nicely built, story “kept me there”
Thank you

Took way too long to get going, and zero build up, then just ended.

very good storyline and narration but way too slow
