About the Book
Mystery, Romance, and Suspense Seamlessly Combined in a Mennonite
Small-Town Setting
Callie Hoffman knows she has a good life in Kingdom, Kansas. She's
thrilled to be engaged to Levi Housler, the new pastor of Kingdom
Mennonite Church, and she spends her days working with her friend and
soon-to-be sister-in-law, Lizzie Housler, at Cora's Cafe.
However, Callie's idyllic life is interrupted when a body is discovered
on the road outside Kingdom and the deceased turns out to be a victim of
a serial killer. As Washington County's new sheriff begins questioning
Kingdom residents, Callie and the rest of the town are appalled at the
prospect of a killer among them. The very reason Kingdom exists is to
protect the people from the temptations and dangers of the outside
world, but all the town founders' attempts to plan ahead couldn't
prevent a threat like this.
Unsettled at this unforeseen danger, Callie is concerned when it appears
Levi knows more than he's telling. Desperate to find answers for
herself, Callie never expected that she'd have to face some of her own
past's skeletons.
As Callie and the residents of Kingdom fear this danger for which they
never planned, they must learn anew that only God knows the future and
their trust must always lie in Him.

My Review
I have read the second book in this series and was curious to read the third. While the second one was not my favorite book Nancy Mehl does a great job creating a different type of Amish fiction. This book is fast paced, full of murders and suspense. This is all good but the overall story line was a tad predictable even with the suspense. I enjoyed the character of Callie and how the book ends. For Amish lovers you will enjoy this twist on fiction in a small Amish community.
"I received this book from CFBA for free in exchange for an honest review."
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Nancy Mehl lives in Wichita, Kansas with her husband Norman and their dog, Watson. She’s authored thirteen books and is currently at work on her newest series for Bethany House Publishing.
All of Nancy’s novels have an added touch – something for your spirit as well as your soul. “I welcome the opportunity to share my faith through my writing,” Nancy says. “It’s a part of me and of everything I think or do. God is number one in my life. I wouldn’t be writing at all if I didn’t believe that this is what He’s called me to do. I hope everyone who reads my books will walk away with the most important message I can give them: God is good, and He loves you more than you can imagine. He has a good plan especially for your life, and there is nothing you can’t overcome with His help.”
She and her husband attend Believer’s Tabernacle in Wichita.
