Speak no evil . . .
In the quiet town of Painters Mill an Amish family is found slaughtered on
their farm. Kate Burkholder and her small police force have few clues, no
motive and no suspect. Formerly Amish herself, Kate is no stranger to secrets,
but she can’t get her mind around the senseless brutality of the crime.
State agent John Tomasseti arrives on the scene to assist. He and Kate worked
together on a previous case, and they’re still setting the limits of
a complex, difficult relationship. They soon realize that the disturbing details
of this case will push those boundaries to the breaking point.
When Kate discovers a diary, she realizes a haunting personal connection to the case. One of the teenage daughters kept some very dark secrets and may have been leading a lurid double life. Driven by her own scarred past, Kate vows to find the killer and bring him to justice—even if it means putting herself in the line of fire.
