About this listen
After recording the last interview of a month-long media extravaganza orchestrated by the brass, NYPD Detectives Chiara Corelli and P. J. Parker are hoping for time out of the spotlight working cold cases and/or solving low profile murders. But the brutal murder of Alessandra Moreau, a singer on track to becoming a superstar, in the living room of New York State Senator Leigh Drayman, a trans woman, is anything but.
Besides Drayman, only Moreau's twin sister and her wife knew she was a trans woman, so Corelli and Parker focus their attention on three suspects—the agent/manager stealing from her, a man from her attorney's office who assaulted her, and H, a rejected lover who she fears.
And when they find thirteen trans women murdered in exactly the manner as Moreau in just over two years, their focus changes and they enlist the senator's help to get the NYPD to set up a task force.
With the murder of two more trans women in New York City, the killer seems to be taunting them. But they are no closer to finding him then they were after Moreau was murdered.
As they dig deeper into those early murders, they eliminate suspects and begin to focus on the one with motive, means, and opportunity.

Story
Penelope Boswell is my best friend. She’s my person. She’s who I call when I have good news and bad. She’s my comfort. My solace. But in the same breath, she’s my want, my longing, my ache. She isn’t mine. She never will be. It’s a special kind of cruel to be in love with someone you shouldn’t. To know your heart beats for someone you can never have. One phone call in the middle of the night, two thousand miles between us, and everything changes. She’s hurt. Sad. Broken. She needs me. He broke her, and now it’s my responsibility to step in and pick up the pieces…

A superb commentary on troubling times.
Trigger warning for all our Trans friends and loved ones. Skip this for your own sake or proceed with caution. It's dark but so necessary for others to contemplate in these oppressive times.
These books are some of my favorites. They are gritty , real, deeply personal. The author has an amazing eye for intricacy. In the systems , dysfunction, family and fragility that dominate much of our worldm. These characters are real, complex and flawed.
This series ages like fine wine and doesn't shy away from the terrible violence hate and oppression perpetuated by those whose choices are driven by fear not hope. (Mandela)
Thank you for shining light on the struggle so many trans people face just to exist and breathe in their own skin. It's needed now more than ever.

Superb!!
I loved everything about this book. The author gave us a great mystery and a story that truly touched my soul. I loved how Chiara and Parker grew in their understanding and advocacy for Trans Women. Every deserves to live as their selves without any fear of being hurt or killed for who they are! This book reinforced my commitment to fight for the rights of Trans and nonbinary people. This support and advocacy is needed now more than ever! Great story and as always the narration was excellent!!! I’m looking forward to the next book in the series 🤞

Outstanding story, narration and series
I hope that there are more books by this author. I have listened to this series twice and will most likely listen another time if another book comes out. There are not many crime series that have lesbians as main characters without having the hot sex. I love those books too but this series is perfect. The crime mystery stays front and center. Abby Craden is perfect as usual.

Hate filled bigotry robs the innocents of life.
Correlli and Parker are back hoping to just be the detectives with normal cases.
I am doubtful that normal ever works in their world.
I love the mystery that is each case and they unfold in the most intriguing way. This case looked at the harsh reality for people who do not fit the box so many think are proper. The author deals with the cruel, hateful, bigoted way so many are treated in this world just for being themselves. The story sheds light on so many misconceptions and expectations and brings light to so many peoples experience.
The mystery makes it a great story so hard to put down because it has so many layers. I am never disappointed with the job these detectives do and the way their lives are altered throughout the story. I am having eye issues so audible let's me hear and feel the story I struggle to read. Abby Craden brings the characters to life so richly sharing the feelings. I love these two women and the partnership they have formed. I selfishly look forward to their next case.

I’ve Been Waiting For This!
This is the 5th book in the Chiara Corelli series, and it doesn’t disappoint.
Detective Chiara Corelli, and her partner, bodyguard P.J. Parker are assigned a new case, when a trans woman is found bludgeoned, and mutilated in the home of a trans senator. This begins this mystery.
You don’t need to read the first 4 in the series to enjoy this book, but it would help regarding the references of the detectives past experiences.
The writing is like opening a new puzzle. You know all of these pieces fit together, but it’s going to take time, and some forethought before the full picture is revealed.
Catherine Maorisi’s writing is a day by day account of Corelli, and Parker’s detective work in solving the case.
I really like that the author has a fantastic story that isn’t built around sex. Don’t get me wrong, a sexy story can be terrific, but this series centers around the detectives and their work. Of course their relationships play a part, but it’s not a focus.
This is a detective story, where the detectives are lesbians. It’s not lesbian’s who just happen to be detectives.
If you like your listen to be a meaty, well fleshed out story, this series could be your next new discovery.
Abby Crayden has given these characters a voice, which perfectly molds their personalities. I can’t hear PJ or Corelli in any different way. They are forever in my mind as Abby Crayden’s voice has cemented them.
I hope there will be another book, though I shouldn’t be greedy as this one has just landed……but……I’ll wait for it.
