Product Description
From the bestselling author of Shadows of Lancaster County comes an exciting new romantic mystery set in Amish country.
Sienna Collins, owner of the Harmony Grove Bed & Breakfast in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, learns that she is under investigation by the federal government for crimes she knows nothing about. A few hours later she finds her ex-boyfriend, Troy, dead, and her life and livelihood begin to spin wildly out of control. She begins to doubt everyone around her, even the handsome detective assigned to the case. As Sienna tries to clear her name, she is forced to depend on her faith, the wisdom of the Amish, and the insight of the man she has recently begun dating. She’ll need all the help she can get, because the secrets she uncovers in Harmony Grove end up threatening not just her bed-and-breakfast, but also her credibility, her beliefs, and ultimately her life.
MY REVIEW
Mindy Starns Clark excells at writing multi-layered books that weave together historical details and unsolved mysteries with present day drama. Secrets of Harmony Grove was an interesting read from start to finish, one with plenty of surprises, plausible "what if" scenarios, and likeable characters. Even though the book is labelled as a romantic mystery, I hope that male readers will still give the book a try as they are likely to find this a great read. The faith issues are well-handled, and the Amish are portrayed in a manner not seen in typical Amish books.
I greatly enjoyed this book and give it 4 out of 5 stars.
