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?

My Thoughts on Choir Loft Murder

Who could be behind the death of the new choir member? It’s not like Frankie really liked the person but she knows that Quint is not the one that did it despite the evidence. What can she do to help prove his innocence? Who could be behind this?

This is the first book in this series that I’ve read. I was not lost and really enjoyed the book. Now I do want to read the other books in the series but I think it’s safe to say that you don’t have to read them in order to enjoy the book.

That being said, the series does track the progression of Frankie and how she comes to terms with the loss of her family so it will make more sense if it’s read in order. But either way, this is an amazing book that you should definitely read!

Frankie gets into all kinds of pickles and gets out by the skin of her teeth and I loved it so much! I can’t wait to see if there are more adventures waiting for Frankie!

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 a broken woman who is angry at God for allowing the deaths of her 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.
