Newlywed Chief of Police Kate Burkholder is awakened by an urgent midnight call, summoning her to a suspicious fire in the woods. When she arrives on scene, she discovers a charred body. The deceased, an Amish man, was chained to a stake and burned alive.
But none of the Amish will speak openly about the murdered man. Are they protecting the memory of one of their own? Or are they afraid of something they dare not share? When her own brother is implicated in the case, Kate finds herself not only at odds with the Amish, but her fellow cops. To uncover the truth, she must dive deep into the Anabaptist culture, peering into the dark corners of its history, only to uncover a secret legacy that shatters everything she thought she knew about the Amish—and her own roots.

Summary
In Painters Mill, Ohio, the Amish and “English” residents have lived side-by-side for two centuries. But sixteen years ago, a series of brutal murders shattered the peaceful farming community. A young Amish girl named Kate Burkholder survived the terror of the Slaughterhouse Killer…but ultimately decided to leave her community.
A wealth of experience later, Kate has been asked to return to Painters Mill as Chief of Police. Her Amish roots and big-city law enforcement background make her the perfect candidate. She’s certain she’s come to terms with her past—until the first body is discovered in a snowy field.
Kate vows to stop the killer before he strikes again. But to do so, she must betray both her family and her Amish past—and expose a dark secret that could destroy her.
