Rumspringa is the time when Amish teens are allowed to
experience life without the rules. It’s an exciting time of
personal discovery and growth before committing to the
church. But when a young teen disappears without a trace,
the carefree fun comes to an abrupt and sinister end, and
fear spreads through the community like a contagion.
A missing child is a nightmare to all parents, and never
more so than in the Amish community, where family ties run
deep. When the search for the presumed runaway turns up a
dead body, the case quickly becomes a murder investigation.
And chief of Police Kate Burkholder knows that in order to
solve this case she will have to call upon everything she
has to give not only as a cop, but as a woman whose own
Amish roots run deep.
Kate and state agent, John Tomasetti, delve into the lives
of the missing teen and discover links to cold cases that
may go back years. But will Kate piece together all the
parts of this sinister puzzle in time to save the missing
teen and the Amish community from a devastating fate? Or
will she find herself locked in a fight to the death with a
merciless killer?
