Publisher's Summary

Detective Olivia Mast would rather run through gunfire than return to her former Amish community in Unity, Maine, where she killed her abusive husband in self-defense and witnessed her family's murder.   

After an Amish man is murdered, the community will not pursue justice or answer questions from the police, so she begrudgingly dons her old prayer kapp and heads to Unity to investigate the murder undercover.    

To make things even worse, her captain also orders her to protect the man she dated as a teen: Isaac Troyer, who was attacked on the night of the murder but cannot remember the incident.    

The handsome and quirky cabinet maker begins to fall for Olivia once again, unaware that she carries a 9mm under her skirt as she must fake her way into rejoining the Amish community to gain the people's trust.    

After another murder, some deadly pranks, and a kidnapping, Olivia realizes she needs Isaac's help most of all because of his personal ties to the suspect.    

Will Isaac be willing to break Amish rules to help her arrest the killer? Or will he be unable to forgive her for lying to the community about wanting to be Amish again... and for lying to him?

I know it's only a book...but NOT Amish life

This was an underdeveloped manuscript with flat characters and very little to keep a listener engaged. Writing somewhat immature. The "heroine" was weak, sappy, and a very bad police detective. She was a "victim" many times during her police work, and she was bested by the bad guy more times than not. Overall: predictable, weak characters, weak storyline, weak everything. Subject matter should have been studied more prior to writing, at least to give the book a dash of realism.

Excellent story!!!!!!

First time hearing audiobooks. It was a wonderful experience. Loved this book "Undercover Amish." It was read very well!,

slow and boring narrator spoke to low

never have any problems with any other narrator being able to hear them but this one seems very low and I couldn't turn anything up any higher... story itself was boring at beginning and by 6 chapter It seemed like i heard same thing over and over not for me!!

The best example of an incompetent woman cop.

First off a cop that constantly gets tricked, over-powered and out maneuvered by the bad guys, is not a good cop or makes a good partner. Second, men actually fall under more than two category's. This book fails recognize that. Men are not either abusive or whimps. Oh, and by the way, lying, cheating, taking advantage of people, and selfishness are not considered positive Christian characteristics. And last but not least, I didn't find Liz endearing or even remotely likeable. Don't waste your credit.

interesting and enjoyable

Enjoyed this book. Wanting to know what was going to happen next. Even liked the ending.

Secrets, Pain, Forgiveness, Redemption

First, I simply love Narrator Callie Beaulieu. I can't explain it, I just do. Next, phenomenal storyline. Can't wait to listen to a book about Ava. The cycle of domestic violence and how to break it, the importance of a life lived with YHWH, and the effects terrible secrets can have, especially in an isolated community are fully explored. I don't want to give away more than that. There is pain, forgiveness and redemption. Excellent!! It's worth the listen🥰

good

at times I wish Liv would of been stronger, there were times I didn't care for her to play weak; she's a cap and has a lot of training.

Great book

I couldn't put the book down. It's was enjoyable to listen too. Done

Loved it

I loved this book, can't wait to read the second one. I read alot of Amish based books, and though this wasn't a favorite, I'd read it again.

Frustrating to listen to.

Such a frustrating book to listen to. The main character, who is supposed to be a female police officer, is so incompetent and whiny, I almost could not finish. It definitely is not a relaxing read as you are trying to figure out how she could possibly be any worse at her job.
