A middle-of-the night phone call summons NYPD Detective Chiara Corelli and her partner, Detective P. J. Parker, to a politically sensitive murder scene. The victims - a US Senator, the pastor of a mega church, and a self-made music industry billionaire - appear to have been killed during a sex orgy.

Pressure is mounting to cover up the circumstances. But Corelli and Parker are enraged by the words scrawled in blood on a mirror, and their hearts are broken by what they find hidden in a closet. Now the partners vow to find the killer and expose the unsavory lives of these men while seeking justice for the real victims in this case - the children....

A Message in Blood (Chiara Corelli Mystery #3) was a difficult read at times because the subject matter included child sexual abuse and sex trafficking, but it was so well written. There were many intricate pieces that were part of the investigation and the writing evoked such a strong emotional response. It’s a very good book.

Abby Craden also does an excellent job with the narration.

Excellent Mystery!

excellent writing, compelling characters and story and the narrator is extremely talented and effective in making each character recognizable.

Outstanding story even with the tough subject matter.

It’s a decent story . The narrator is good . Subtle digs at The New York Post as an anti police newspaper ( I suppose it’s just part of the fiction )

Not bad , but obviously has PC undertones

Another great Chiara/Parker mystery! This one dealt with some heavy issues and the author handled it beautifully. I’m looking forward to book 4!! The narration was superb as always! I’m hooked on this series and highly recommend it!!

another great mystery with all the twist and turns that makes for a thrilling read. I love the Corelli series.

Another great mystery

Murder, Sex Trafficking and Child Rape make for a big case involving very important people. This case could make or break the homicide team, as Chiara and P.J will not cover it up.

Chiara has finally admitted to having PTSD and besides doing yoga, she is going to veterans counseling for PTSD.

While this isn't a romance novel, Love Is in the air for Chiara and Brett, as well as PJ and Gloria.

Another outstanding who done it

Catherine Maiorisi has written another gem. She has created a fine cast of characters and had them grow and develop with each story.chi area Corelli and PJ Parker are good cops,who have learned to work together and who have learned to respect each other. This case is about pillars of the community who deal in sex trafficking of children. It is chilling.Abby Craden is, as usual, superb as narrator bringing all characters to life. Hope there is another in the series because it is just that good!

Another Winner!

I always enjoy Abby Craden as the narrator and I really enjoyed this series as well. It is refreshing to listen to booked that are focused on the many issues we face today. I appreciate the subtle tones regarding sex between Kiera and Bret but not forcing or focusing on it but on the main issues. Great detective series and I hope there are more books in this series with these detectives and the issues we the people face today.
