Reread! I have now read all of the Kate Burkholder Series, except her new one, Rage. I listened to The Burning this time, the first time I read it. Still really enjoyed it. Castillo writes such good books.

An Evil Heart: A Novel | Linda Castillo

Pickpick

An Evil Heart is sit in the small town of Planters Mill, Ohio. The 15th installment of the Kate Burkholder Series by Linda Castillo sees Kate Burkholder facing her most guersome murder, yet. A young Amish man is killed with a crossbow. The wound is something the corner has only seen once before, and that was an accidental shooting of a foot. Who would want to kill an Amish man like that?

I really enjoyed this book. I didn't ⬇️

MonicaLoves2Read suspect the culprit until right at the end. I love this series, and it amazes me that Castillo can still keep it fresh and new. Burkholder has grown so much since the first book. All the characters have grown along with her. I was glad that Tomasetti and her are finally tying the knot. I highly recommend this series. Though these books can be read as stand-alones, I suggest reading them in order so that you can get to know all the characters.

4.5⭐️

It's hard to believe that Fallen is Linda Castillo's 13th book in the Kate Burkholder Series. Castillo still manages to captivate me. I did figure out the culprit before the end, so I dropped 1/2 star for that.
Kate Burkholder is the Police Chief of Planters Mill, Ohio. She gets called to the scene of a homicide. Burkholder realizes she knows the victim. She babysat Rachel Swartz when Rachel was 6 and Burkholder 14.

MonicaLoves2Read They have a thing in common. They both left the Amish way when they were teenagers. Burkholder now has to figure out who and why Rachel was killed.

Castillo continues to grow not only Burkholder but all the minor characters as well. I have seen her gang of police develop over the 13 books and learned more about them. I highly recommend this series. Though they can be read as stand-alones, I suggest you start at the beginning. That way, you can see how Castillo has grown Burkholder, as well as the other characters in the series.

A quick novella by Linda Castillo. Disappeared has Kate Burkholder looking for a 2 year old that went missing during the night. I continue to love this series, which is a look at the Amish life and a Police Chief that left that way of life. I can't recommend this series enough.

Outsider is the 12th installment in the Kate Burkholder Series by Linda Castillo. Kate's past comes back, and she doesn't know if she's being played or not. Kate's old roommate is running for her life and needs help, who to help her but Kate Burkholder, Police Chief of Planters Mill, Ohio. There's a blizzard coming, and Kate is called to an Amish man's home.
Love this series.

Shamed is the 11th book in the Kate Burkholder Series by Linda Castillo. The small town of Planters Mill, Ohio, is shocked when an Amish grandmother is brutally murdered. Kate Burkholder is the Chief of Police and comes upon the scene. Not only is the grandmother killed, but her special needs granddaughter is missing. Burkholder is not being told the truth by the Bishop or family. Will Burkholder get to the truth before it's too late?⬇️

Castillo has grown Kate Burkholder so
during these 11 books, though she still takes chances. I enjoy learning a little bit about the Amish as I read these books. All of the characters have developed, and Castillo has not lightened the suspense any. If you enjoy Police Procedural books, then you ought to give the Kate Burkholder Series a try.

I love this series. This is the 12th installment which follows Chief Kate Burkholder as she inadvertently becomes involved with a case of corruption in a neighboring department. I loved the more procedural-heavy tone of this story and the way Kate‘s beginnings with the police force were told. It gives more insight into why she is the way she is.

I also love the way the cold, snowy weather played into the story, since it‘s so hot where I am.
