Book Description

March 6, 2006
(No. 4 in the Liturgical Mystery series) Detective Hayden Konig is a success in anyone's book. He has a job that he loves as Chief of Police in the small Appalachian town of St. Germaine, North Carolina. He's employed as the part-time organist and choirmaster at St. Barnabas Church. He's just proposed to his sweetheart, Meg Farthing, and, to top it all off, he's as rich as a televangelist with his own 900 number.

In spite of all his apparent success, Hayden Konig's life-long dream is yet to be realized. He longs to write the next great hard-boiled mystery. Though his past attempts have been less than impressive, Hayden is convinced that using Raymond Chandler's actual typewriter (purchased at an auction) is just the impetus his writing needs to push his detective story over the top. Unfortunately, he's dead wrong.

St. Barnabas, meanwhile, has come into a great deal of money. Sixteen million dollars, to be exact, and the members of the congregation all have ideas on how to spend it. Suddenly, a shot rang out! A woman screamed, and Detective Konig has another dead body in the choir loft. It's business as usual in St. Germaine. With Easter right around the corner and suspects galore, Hayden must find the murderer. Can things get any worse?

Hayden Konig's 4th mystery
The Soprano Wore Falsettos
It's not what you expect...it's even funnier!

5.0 out of 5 stars Keep 'em coming!, April 26, 2006
By 
The Pink Lady (Madisonville, KY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Soprano Wore Falsettos : A Liturgical Mystery (Paperback)
I now have read all four books by this author, and I think each one is funnier than the last! I am typically not a mystery reader, but a friend gave this series to me as a gift. The Soprano includes a mystery, indeed, but the story surrounding it is so hysterical that there were times I laughed so hard that I cried. I don't want to give any of the outrageous moments away, but I recommend this book to anyone who needs a pick-me-up or wants a fun, easy read.

5.0 out of 5 stars For a small but devoted audience, November 10, 2006
This review is from: The Soprano Wore Falsettos : A Liturgical Mystery (Paperback)
If you are Episcopalian, a hard-boiled detective novel reader, an organist, or a choir member, these books are for you. They are laugh out loud, tongue in cheek, over the top humor.

5.0 out of 5 stars MURDER BY HANDBELL, February 22, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Soprano Wore Falsettos : A Liturgical Mystery (Paperback)
Do your self a favor and don't miss one book in this (I HOPE) very long and successful series. We have a MASTER SATIRIST in our midst. Don't miss the pirate communion or the Soprano who has a REAL SECRET. As in other books in this series, NOTHING IS SACRED! We only need Mel Brooks to buy the film rights.
