Simple, Sweet and Cozy A Churn For The Worse by Laura Bradford

I just finished A Churn for the worse by Laura Bradford. It was a lovely read. A sweet story of love and friendship accompanies this cozy mystery. It was a treat to read and like taking a scenic vacation in Amish country.

"The national bestselling author of" Suspendered Sentence" returns to Heavenly, Pennsylvania, where shop owner Claire Weatherly and Detective Jakob Fisher must put on their thinking kapps to solve a string of robberies and a murder in the Amish community... When an Amish farmer is found dead in his barn, his family accepts his death as God s will. But Detective Jakob Fisher knows the farmer didn t hit himself in the head with the shovel lying beside his body. And when it comes to light that a stranger appeared at the farmer s home and now money is missing from their milk can, Fisher suspects robbery as the motive especially when another Amish family is victimized. Getting to the truth proves difficult, however, since Fisher has two strikes against him in the eyes of the Amish his chosen career, and the Amish roots he left behind. Desperate to stop a murderous thief, Fisher turns to Heavenly Treasures shop owner Claire Weatherly for help. The trust she s earned from the Amish community enables her to go where the detective cannot straight into the path of a killer..."

I had the great fortune of visiting Pennsylvania and Amish country in 2008 it was such a memorable trip. The buggies and the clothes lines are what stood out to me. I also was thrilled to enjoy a meal at the Shady Maple and did some shopping at the market there. I brought home little lights that looked like candles that I saw in the windows of the homes we passed and this quaint and welcoming custom I brought back home with me.
