My Thoughts

I began reading Amish Country Killer by Mary Alford and, after doing the evening chores, I stayed up late to finish it. I enjoyed all the suspense, action, and mystery.  I followed Diana, Micah, and Kip as they worked to solve the string of murders.  The killer was always one step ahead of them.  I was amazed that Diana and Micah were able to keep going after what they went through (I would want a paid four-week vacation after catching the killer). Kip, Diana’s K9 officer, is clever, brave, and a sweetheart.  

I had fun solving the whodunit. There are twists and turns throughout the story. I never knew what would happen next.  It is a good thing that Diana and Micah had each other to rely on (once Diana learns to trust him that is).  Naturally, with the duo spending considerable time together, it is inevitable that sparks will fly between them. Given the challenges the pair face, Diana and Micah will find their faith indispensable.  I like how the story ended.    Amish Country Killer is an enthralling tale with a narrow escape, hits to the head, a serial killer, teens trapped in a mine, an unexpected find, a trusty canine, a twisted mind, and a tenacious chief of police.
