âMiller does an excellent job of portraying Amish life and its often conflicted relationship with mainstream culture.ââPublishers Weekly (starred review)
When Rachel Mast returned to Stone Mill, Pennsylvania, she unwittingly became a bridge between the closed Amish community and the Englisher police. Now, as she prepares for her wedding, sheâs drawn into an investigation that could end in a different ceremonyâher funeral . . .
Rachel didnât know Daniel Fisher well, but it still comes as a shock when her fiancĂŠ, a state trooper, tells her that the young Amish manâs death may not have been a hunting accident. The police believe he was murdered and they need Rachelâs help telling the family. But when she does, they donât seem upset or even surprised. Even more unsettling, Danielâs brother-in-law confessesâwhile his mother begs Rachel to prove his innocence. But why would he give a false confession? Who is he trying to protect?
As Rachelâs search for answers overshadows her wedding plans, rumors swirl that she might not show up at the altarâand that Daniel wasnât as upstanding as he seemed. While the list of people who wanted him dead grows, Rachel is caught in the killerâs crosshairs, and if sheâs not careful, it may be more than her feet that turn cold . . .
â[Miller] continues her streak of successfully combining local color and detection.ââKirkus Reviews
