Among the Wicked (Kate Burkholder #8)
by
by
Police chief Kate Burkholder of Painter Mills, Ohio grew up Amish. She left the community years ago to live a secular "English" life. Now a young 15-year-old girl is found frozen to death near a pond in an Amish community in upstate New York. Kate is asked to infiltrate that familiar community to find if there’s more to her death than what appears.
Are people being held against their will? Allegations of child abuse? Exactly what is going on in this secretive society? Kate hopes to find the truth before anyone else gets hurt...including herself. Putting her own life at risk, Kate goes undercover, returning to her roots and blending back into the Amish community as one of their own.
As always, this book mixes together a police procedural along with revealing a closer look at the Amish culture. Linda Castillo does this perfectly. Fast paced, easy to read, held my undivided attention start to end.
Is it the best in the series? Hmmm...no, I didn't think so. But I do enjoy the series and look forward to the next.

Nice review Kaceey. I agree with you that this isn't the best of the series.
