Setting: Contemporary early winter, Amish country Ohio
First line/s: "The blade left a trail of blood across pale flesh."
What I posted on Goodreads: A non-murder mystery with a message and a HEA that could have gone awry but didn't.
My comments: This was not a murder mystery, yippee! No one died. It even had a bit of a moral/reconciliation between cultures that was quite endearing. Very good short story, with a happily ever after that could've really gone awry. It didn't!
Goodreads synopsis: In The Pact a gripping Kate Burkholder short mystery from New York Times bestselling author Linda Castillo, a terrifying disappearance in Amish country reveals the power of friendship.
Three days before Thanksgiving, two boys disappear without a trace. Eleven-year-old Aaron Kuhns is Amish. Kevin Dennison is twelve and “English.” They’re adventurers, explorers, and inseparable best friends. When they don’t return home from what was supposed to be a fun afternoon of fishing, Chief of Police Kate Burkholder must find the missing boys before the first winter storm of the season bears down on Painters Mill.
