The Dead Will Tell by Linda Castillo
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
A city councillor is found hanging from a beam in his barn.Suicide? Well,no, he's been shot twice; once in the abdomen and once in the groin. And he has a peg doll jammed into his throat on the base of which is written Hochstetler. That's the name of an Amish family who suffered an unspeakable crime 35 years ago. Someone fatally shot the husband during an apparent robbery,the wife disappeared and four of the five children died in the basement of the farmhouse that burnt to the ground. What could the deceased possibly have to do with that cold case? Kate Burkholder, the Police Chief of Painter's Mills,Ohio and her force will not discover the connection in time to save two more members of the community. When they do,it will be a race to catch the killer. Before they do,another victim will die, a veteran policeman will be severely injured and Kate herself will come close to being another victim! What violence can do to the human mind!
