Finding Mercy

By: Karen Harper

Narrated by: Gracie Peters

Quiet, cautious Ella Lantz has spent her entire life in the close-knit Amish community of the Home Valley. Tending her lavender fields, she finds calm and serenity in purple blooms, heavenly scents and a simple life. But the sudden arrival of a strange visitor to her parents' home heralds a host of new complications.

Alex Caldwell is unlike any man Ella has ever met - clearly, he's no "Pennsylvania cousin", whatever the elders may say. In fact, Alex is a Wall Street whistle-blower under witness protection…and he's brought a world of trouble to the Lantz doorstep.

As Ella comes to trust - even love - a man so utterly worldly, she realizes her life has already changed forever. When it becomes violently clear that even the Home Valley is no refuge, Ella and Alex are driven into the wider world to hide. And with such a high price placed on their silence, they may not survive to share their love….

Did not like narration

Almost stopped book a few times. The elder Amish sounded more like vampires than Amish.

IT WAS GREAT! keep me up at night listening, suspenseful could not put it down. wish for another in series

Great book

Was one of her best books that I have listened to in quite sometime the narrator was easy to listen to

Seems to portray more flesh and blood real people.

Love the book. I'm ashamed to say it's been in my library for several years. A really good and engaging book with lots of twists and turns. I highly recommend this book. I have already got another Karen Harper book. downloaded.

Good mesh of Amish and English

This was a good listen overall. The story was good however somewhat predictable. The characters were very stable especially the Amish based ones. The "englisher" made his way into the community much to his chagrin. Without being a spoiler it's difficult to discuss more about the characters and the outcome. The narrator was easy to listen to for the most part.

As mentioned overall it was a good easy listen.
