ChoirLoftMurder5_Revised - 3 (1) In book 3 of the Frankie Shep Suspense Novellas, a member of the church choir dies during rehearsal, and the apparent murder weapon—a blowgun—implicates the man Frankie loves. She’s shocked to discover Quint was a champion at the sport before he accepted the senior pastor role at the church. And he’s refusing to talk about his fate.

Her investigation reveals that Quint isn’t the only person with the skill to hit a woman’s carotid artery while she’s singing a high note, and Frankie is convinced someone is framing Quint. The closer she gets to proving it, the more she faces a stalker’s deadly wrath.

Can Frankie save herself and the man she loves from becoming the next victims?

"Choir Loft Murder" by Karen Randau is the third book in this series. I think a reader would like this one without reading the other two but I strongly recommend reading all three in order as the second book keep reminding readers of what happened in the first book, and the third book keeps reminding readers of what happened in the first two books.

This book was a fast paced mystery and it is one that kept this reader guessing as to who done it. It is a story based on revenge. It was an interesting plot, a murder in a church and then the pastor of that church being arrested.

I really liked the ending! I think this third book was the best of the three.

I received a complimentary copy from the author and Celebrate Lit and these opinions are my own.

More from Karen

Since Choir Loft Murder is the third book in the Frankie Shep Suspense Novellas series, I wanted to show how Frankie has grown through the series—from broken woman who is angry at God for allowing the deaths of family into a strong and happy woman who relies on God to help her through an unusually tough life.

She has shown her grit in all three novels in the series, and this one shows how she has grown through the adversity life has thrown at her.

In writing Choir Loft Murder, I wanted to show that ordinary people usually are stronger and more resilient than they know.
