MY THOUGHTS.....
Rosa Petersheim's disappearance was first introduced in The Protector, and it's still an issue in The Peacemaker. Her family and friends don't know what happened to their beloved Rosa. Did she leave voluntarily, or was she taken against her will? Is she still alive? If so, why hasn't she made her presence known?
So much grief and pain have been experienced in the past year, and no one has suffered more than Ada Detwiler, Rosa's best friend, and Ephraim Peight, Rosa's boyfriend. Author Wanda E. Brunstetter poignantly describes their feelings and the uncertainty of the entire Amish community but hope and trust have never been lost. Isn't this a true representation of the Amish faith?
This is a must-read for fans of Amish fiction, and mystery lovers will love the unanswered questions about Rosa. The Peacemaker is a wonderful addition to the Mifflin County Mystery series, and Brunstetter shows why she is known as "Amish Country's Most Beloved Storyteller"!
I received a copy from the author and publisher. There was no obligation for a positive review.
