This is the 3rd and final book of the series, "Sisters of Holmes County". I read it in one day. It ties up the series neatly and nothing is left for the reader to question. The mystery is solved, and of course love prevails. Wanda Brunstetter is a great Amish fiction writer. Her books deliver and the pages go quickly as the reader becomes completely enveloped into the Amish way of life. This series is worth a read.

Book 3 in the Sister's of Holmes County Series. I waited impatiently for this book to arrive. And it didn't let me down. By the time I got to the end of the first chapter, I had made up my mind about who was causing trouble for the family. I got so caught up in the story, I was not able to set the book aside. The author wove the mystery so convincingly through-out the series. Just when it seemed the solution was in sight, she'd veer off on another jaunt. I doubted my answer many times, before coming to the last page. This book was so easy to read. I finished it in just over a day. Definitely a have to read series!

Martha is the sister I can relate to the most. She loves animals and has her own dog breeding company (Shelties are my favorite to own as she owns) and hopes to board and groom dogs one day if her dad will let her. She is a bit of a tomboy and has had a liking for Luke for a long time, her sister Ruth's ex-boyfriend. She'll never be able to be with Luke because he sees her as a friend and has been blamed for the attacks her family has endured for the past two years.

This story was good, but the whole "Who-done-it" that extended for three books without much being done to find out who the culprit of the attacks was, started to drive me crazy last book. Seriously, two full years of terrible events from a house burning down to someone being murdered and barely an investigation made over it drives me nutty. I guess it drove Martha nutty too, so she started to investigate things herself and Luke was out to clear his name. The two of them become Amish sleuths!

I will say that the whole time in reading this series, you might think you know who actually worked towards doing these crimes, but it wasn't until near the second half of this book that I started to question one person and thankfully I got it right, but I didn't know for sure if it would be that person anyway. It was and the ending is lovely.
