Why read it?
1 author picked A Matter of Blood as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Being a New Yorker, I’m a sucker for any true New York books, and this one is as authentic as they come. I also really appreciated how believable Chiara Corelli is.

From Emilya's list on detective novels that read like domestic suspense.
