THE BURNING

Newlywed Chief of Police Kate Burkholder is awakened by an urgent midnight call, summoning her to a suspicious fire in the woods. When she arrives on scene, she discovers a charred body. The deceased, an Amish man, was chained to a stake and burned alive.

Kate knows well that the Amish prefer to handle problems without interference from the outside world, and no one will speak openly about the murdered man. From what she’s able to piece together, Swanz led a troubled life and had been excommunicated. But if that’s the case, why are the Amish so reluctant to talk about him? Are they protecting the memory of one of their own? Or are they afraid of something they dare not share?

When her own brother is implicated in the case, Kate finds herself not only at odds with the Amish, but her counterparts in law enforcement. The investigation takes a violent turn when Kate’s life is threatened.

To uncover the truth, Kate must dive deep into the Anabaptist culture, peering into the dark corners of its history, only to uncover a secret legacy that shatters everything she thought she knew about the Amish—and her own roots.

 

BONUS SHORT MYSTERY

Coming April 2, 2024

Newlyweds Chief of Police Kate Burkholder and John Tomasetti are spending their honeymoon at a Lake Erie cabin that was once part of an historic Amish settlement. But when a violent storm erupts, Lovina Nisley, the Amish owner of the cabin, goes missing. Lovina is in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease, so it initially appears the woman simply took the wrong path. Her disappearance takes an ominous turn when her husband reveals that a developer has been threatening them if they refuse to sell him their home. With temperatures dropping and local law enforcement unable to reach them, Kate and Tomasetti must brave the perilous weather to find her. Will they reach Lovina in time to save her life?
