What Critics are Saying

"Written with incredible detail, this spellbinding musical drama at the New York Metropolitan Opera House mimics the operatic masterpieces performed by some of the greatest musicians to ever grace the stage...This delightful story adds rich layers of culture and intrigue to a brilliantly twisted plot that's guaranteed to thrill the lovers of a great mystery." - BTS eMag , Reviewer

""Murder In The Pit is a tight mystery that kept me guessing, but it's the cast of characters and the behind-the-scenes look at opera that makes this book stand out. Even if you don't like mysteries, this book is a great place to start. I found the action compelling enough to keep me guessing, and I never once felt like the author was toying with me, which is a problem I have with many mystery writers. Perhaps it's because Miner reveals so much about opera that I don't feel as if she's keeping information from me. How she managed to do that...is a mystery."" - Carol Wainwright , Editor

""I just finished Murder in the Pit. I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to the sequel. I will never watch opera again in the same way! Good work Erica."" - Terry Crowley Morgan , Music scholar

""Written with incredible detail, this spellbinding musical drama at the Metropolitan Opera House mimics the operatic masterpieces performed by some of the greatest musicians to ever grace the stage... a unique and colorful cast of characters who shed light into the eccentric life of those in the arts. This delightful story adds rich layers of culture and intrigue to a brilliantly twisted plot that's guaranteed to thrill the lovers of a great mystery."" - Poshpow , BTS eMag Reviewer

""Irresistibly plotted, with a cast of characters who keep you guessing until the end, this is a classy murder mystery with an extra dimension. Ms. Miner's background as a violinist in the Metropolitan Opera orchestra gives her readers a wonderfully observed, virtual back-stage tour of what lies behind in the curtain (and in the pit!) of the world's greatest opera house. I hope I will see this translated onto the screen before long!"" - Susan Toth , Lecture attendee

""I loved reading Murder in the Pit and imagined your story was inspired by your years of being at the MET orchestra pit!"" - Stephanie Osser , Musical artist

"'I was so swept away by the masterful writing and brilliant characters in Murder in the Pit! Brava to Ms. Miner! Not many people write about music with the knowledge and depth that she does and achieve just the right tone and level of suspense. I recommend this mystery novel to anyone who loves backstage workings and great mysteries ala Agatha Christie.'" - Beth Levin , Concert Pianist

"Murder In The Pit is an adventure of the imagination, a play within a play...[Miner] has recreated in a fascinating operatic world a tangle of plot twists whose intricacies ultimately unravel to reveal the prose of an author who is sure of her skills." - Valerio Massimo Manfredi , Best selling author

"...Ms. Miner has put together a very solid mystery with a cast of characters who were an absolute joy to read." - Amy Lignor , Reviewer, BookPleasures.com

"I'm on Chapter 31 and can tell I will be staying up all night if that's what it takes. I MUST KNOW WHO THE KILLER IS AND WHAT THE DEVIL IS GOING ON. I could kill you myself for raising my blood pressure!...This book is beyond fantastic!" - Georgia Richardson Staggers , Author, Speaker

""Murder in the Pit is enormous fun. Suspicions, clues, and personalities weave and interweave. Even seasoned mystery readers may find themselves astonished by the way Miner brings everything together in a frankly scary way." " - Kenneth Wolman , "Jaded opera attendee "

""Erica, I love a mystery and I love opera, and I enjoyed your book."" - Pauline Hager , Author
