Today I seem to have had the attention span of a fly, so I read this group of short mysteries in the Kate Burkholder series. The stories were great- complete little mysteries. The audiobook- not so much. When the reader portrays any of the Amish young women they all have this voice that makes them sound about four years old. I love this series, although there are a LOT of murders in this very small town. 😊

Six short stories from the Kate Burkholder series by the author in one book, including a hit-and-run, a missing girl, & a young woman with amnesia. It's an alright read, but because they are short stories they don't really have any depth. I found the book a bit hard-going because just as the individual stories became interesting, they were over. I'd say this is for 'hardcore fans who absolutely have to read everything in a series' only. 3⭐

This book contained 5 short stories and Kate Burkholder didn‘t disappoint. She is a total Cop Badass!! Thought I would share with the pretty flowers my love gave me this week.
