Review: Among the Innocent

Synopsis:

When Leah Miller’s entire Amish family was murdered ten years ago, the person believed responsible took his own life. Since then, Leah left the Amish and joined the police force. Now, after another Amish woman is found murdered with the same MO, it becomes clear that the wrong man may have been blamed for her family’s deaths.

As Leah and the new police chief, Dalton Cooper, work long hours struggling to fit the pieces together in order to catch the killer, they can’t help but grow closer. When secrets from both of their pasts begin to surface, an unexpected connection between them is revealed. But this is only the beginning. Could it be that the former police chief framed an innocent man to keep the biggest secret of all buried? And what will it mean for Leah–and Dalton–when the full truth comes to light?

USA Today bestselling author Mary Alford keeps you guessing as two determined souls plumb the dark depths of the past in order to forge a brighter future–together.

Review:

Among the Innocent by Mary Alford is a heartbreaking yet heart pounding read. The Amish community is under attack by a charming serial killer. So, far it seems he has been able to outsmart the police. One young Amish girl, now a woman for the police force is tracking down the serial killer. The same one that murdered her family. This is a wonderful read. I was easily engaged and hooked from the beginning. I needed to know what happened, who the killer was, and why. Mary Alford’s story kept me on the edge hanging on waiting for the final verdicts. When all the pieces come together, it was epic. I love this fast-paced tale. The characters are unforgettable. I highly recommend this to all who love Amish, Christain, and romantic suspense kind of reads. It was clean and well done.
