In Dark Company is a novella. It starts with a mystery of a girl running through a corn field in Planters Mill. Kate Burkholder, the Chief of Police, is soon on the case. The girl doesn't remember anything about herself or how she arrived in Planters Mill. Soon, Burkholder finds herself in trouble again, but I think that's just the way she is made. 4⭐️ Quick Read

Kate Burkholder #11.5, less than 2 hours in length.

Two young boys go missing-one Amish and one English-and Chief Kate Burkholder is racing to find them before the bad weather claims their lives. Nothing added to the series at large in terms of plot, but these shorts are always enjoyable reads or listens while I‘m out running errands.

I love this series. I am rereading (listening) to them because I think I have missed some. Down a Dark Road is the 9th one in the Kate Burkholder Series by Linda Castillo.

A childhood friend, Joesph, is in prison for murder. He escapes and asks Kate Burkholder to help clear his name. Kate soon finds out there's more going on than she thought. Of course, Kate finds herself in trouble. I always think to myself, Kate, don't go meet ⬇️

MonicaLoves2Read ⬆️ that person or don't go to that place, because I know she's going to have some kind of problem.

I love that Castillo still manages to grab me. She continues to grow all the regular characters in the series, not only Kate's. I know that when I pick up one of these books, I am going to be entertained and kept engaged with the story.

If you have never read this series, and you like thrillers or police procedurals, you need to give it a try. Highly recommend.

Another great one in the Kate Burkholder Series. A little different as not as much blood and stuff. Kate is asked to go undercover in an Amish community for the NY State Police. Could Kate be walking into a more dangerous situation than either her or the NY State Police thought? 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌓

I absolutely inhaled this 11th installment in the Kate Burkholder series. A grandmother is out picking walnuts with two of her grandchildren when she is brutally murdered. The killer abducts one of the little girls and soon other community people begin dying. Because of the danger to the child, Kate worked extra hard to find her alive and being her home. The stakes were super high throughout. Really good, I couldn‘t turn the pages fast enough.

Bklover Love this series! 1mo

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

The thing I love about the Kate Burkholder Series is that Catillo always seems to grab me pretty quickly. The way she has developed Kate and John Tomasetti is extraordinarily well. Though she does make me laugh when Kate says how safe her job is. It cracks me up because she's the Police Chief of Planters Mill, Ohio, with a small force. I enjoy that she writes about the Amish, and I get to learn a little something about them. Planters Mill ⬇️

MonicaLoves2Read ⬆️ is about to be hit by a tornado. Choas ensues soon after. I liked that this one was a little more on the personal level. 2mo
TheAromaofBooks Great review!! I think Castillo does such a great job of portraying the Amish as regular people. 2mo

A Kate Burkholder Novella. A quick read that doesn't involve a murder! The Bishop calls the police early one morning to say a baby has been left on his porch. Kate has to find out who would leave a newborn baby with the Amish Bishop. Are the parents Amish or English?

😊 Happy Reading 😊

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! Somehow, I think I've missed reading this one! 2mo
MonicaLoves2Read @TheAromaofBooks I missed some too. That's why I decided to start with the 1sf one and read them in order. 😊📚 2mo

Short novella. #10.5 in the Kate Burkholder series. Coming in at just less than 2 hours, I listened on my way to/from work over two days. Nothing new is added to the series, it‘s just an aside about an Amish teen that is run over by a car and survives, but just barely. Kate has to figure out who ran him over, and why.

I love this series. Painter‘s Mill OH has an oddly large amount of bad people living in it to be such a small Amish community 😂
