Gripping Romantic Suspense! 'Among the Innocent' - by Mary Alford

 


About the book:

When Leah Miller's entire Amish family was murdered ten years ago, the person believed responsible took his own life. Since then, Leah has left the Amish and joined the police force. Now, after an 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.

What will it mean for Leah--and Dalton--when the full truth comes to light?

My review:

This was such a suspenseful story with a great blend of investigation, twists and romance to make me want to keep reading straight through!  The investigation was very interesting as they tracked down witnesses and tested evidence on their hunt for the killer.  The bad guy seemed to be everywhere!  It was very suspenseful with a lot of action.  I liked the twist but I felt like they should have looked into the possibility sooner.  Dalton had a strong faith in God that had gotten him through a lot whereas Leah had struggled with hers after her family died.  Leah started to evaluate that relationship and they both had to deal with their reluctance to open their hearts after losing people they loved.  This was a new author for me and it was such an exciting story.  I can't wait to read what she has next and check our her previous books!

I received a free copy of this book from Revell.  I was not compensated for this review.  All opinions are my own.
