I thoroughly enjoyed this second installment of Laura Bradford's Amish Mysteries. What really lifted this story above other cozy mysteries is the complex stories surrounding the two main men in this book. Jakob Fisher, who grew up in an Amish family, later made the decision to become a police officer, a decision which ostracizes him from his family. Benjamin Miller, an Amish widow, is attracted to Claire Weatherly, but a romance between an Amish man and an Englisch woman is also forbidden. So, in addition to a well-done mystery, there is a lot of interesting subtests in this story. Looking forward to the next one in the series!

Claire Weatherly, owner of Heavenly Treasures, gift shop in the Amish town of Heavenly, is once again drawn into a murder investigation when a guest at her aunt's Inn is killed during a local festival . I was able to spot the killer early on, but that did not interfere with the enjoyment of the book....In fact the developing relationships takes a front row seat in the series, IMO......Claire is attracted to two men....but cultural, and religious differences makes one of the attractions off limits.......I will be reading the next book in the series to see how these relationships develop......Would love to have some yummy Pennsylvania Dutch recipes included...
