Book: Choir Loft Murder

Author: Karen Randau

Genre: Mystery Suspense

Release date: August 24, 2021

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?

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.

My Review

Choir Loft Murder is the third installment from Karen Randau’s series Frankie Shep Suspense. Even though it is part of a series, I think readers can read it as a stand alone. I thought it was pretty good. I was hooked right from the start. I did not want to put it down until I was finished. It is not one that is easy to predict and I was left guessing throughout. I adored Frankie and Quint. Great story.

I am giving Choir Loft Murder four and a half stars. I recommend it for readers who enjoy reading clean mysteries. I look forward to reading the other books from the Frankie Shep Suspense series to see what happened previously.

I received a digital copy of Choir Loft Murder from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
