Some Amish communities aren't so cozy.

The death of a teenage Amish girl in a cornfield looks like an accident, but sheriff Serenity Adams suspects foul play. To solve the murder, she must investigate the nearby Amish community with the help of a man who was shunned years ago.

At first glance, the case seems obvious. The poor girl was probably accidently shot during hunting season, but when the elders of the Amish community and even the girl's parents react with uncaring subdued behavior, Serenity becomes suspicious. As she delves deeper into the secretive community that she grew up beside, she discovers a gruesome crime from the past that may very well be related to the Amish girl's shooting.

Serenity's persistence leads her to a stunning discovery that not only threatens to destroy her blossoming romance with Daniel Bachman, but may even take her life in the end.

Karen Ann Hopkins has created memorable characters and an amazingly diverse setting in which her female sheriff must develop a more open mind to deal more effectively with the unique population of her county.

Especially love the Audible version.

Superb Start to Mystery Series

This was a well-plotted out story, somewhat overdramatic in the depiction of Amish.
the narration almost prevented me from continuing to listen--Amish 'speech' was stilted and overly slow and over-pronounced.
The narration will, most likely, make me consider my options before another purchase.

Good Story, but...

Good blend of Amish and English interaction. Good mystery. Looking forward to the rest of the series.

Great story - could have left out bad language and been better
