Hearse and Buggy
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
Claire Weatherly has fled a high-stress lifestyle for a slower pace—in Amish country: Heavenly, Pennsylvania. She only planned a short visit but instead found herself opening an Amish specialty shop, Heavenly Treasures, and settling in.Claire loves her new home, and she’s slowly making friends among the locals, including Esther, a young Amish woman who works in the shop. So when the store’s former owner,the unlikable Walter Snow, is murdered, and the man Esther is sweet on becomes a suspect, Claire can’t help but get involved.
Newly returned Detective Jakob Fisher, who left Heavenly—and his Amish upbringing—as a teenager, is on the case. But his investigation is stalled by the fact that none of his former community will speak with him. Claire’s connections make her the perfect go-between.
As Claire investigates, she uncovers more than she wanted to know about her neighbors. And suddenly, everything she had hoped to find in this peaceful refuge is at risk...

Newly divorced and temporarily residing in her aunt's B and B in Heavenly, PA, Claire feels as if she has finally found her true home. Pleased to have her own shop showcasing local Amish arts, Claire finds that Heavenly's only blemish is local businessman Walter Snow, who betrayed the local Amish crafts people by pocketing their earnings and skipping town. When Walter strays back into town, someone makes it his last visit, killing him in the alley behind Claire's store. His bellicose widow accuses two Amish brothers of murder. Suddenly, Claire finds herself working as a go-between for the Amish and the town's new police detective, who is shunned because he left the local order. Befriending the Amish, who confide in her, makes Claire's input pretty important. VERDICT Bradford's series debut cozy is a deft puzzle that stars twin motives, revenge and jealousy. Her strong suit is how she develops the theme of finding one's way in the world. The author also writes as Elizabeth Lynn Casey (Reap What You Sew).
