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.

Lovina in time to save her life?
