About this listen

A deadly fire exposes the dark side of Amish life in this harrowing new thriller in Linda Castillo's New York Times best-selling audiobook series.

When a historic barn burns to the ground in the middle of the night, Chief of Police Kate Burkholder is called in to investigate. At first it looks like an accident, but when the body of 18-year-old Daniel Gingerich is found inside - burned alive - Kate suspects murder. But who would want a well-liked, hardworking Amish man dead?

Kate delves into the investigation and discovers Daniel had a dark side. He was a sexual predator. His victims were mainly Amish women, too afraid to come forward, and he's been getting away with it for far too long. Now someone has stopped him, but who? The women he victimized? Their boyfriends? Their parents?

As Kate wades through a sea of suspects, she's confronted by her own violent past and an unthinkable possibility.

Critic reviews

"Narrator Kathleen McInerney returns as compassionate and determined Chief of Police Kate Burkholder.... McInerney shifts seamlessly between the many secondary characters, drawing in listeners as the plot unfolds." (AudioFile)


"The audio book format is especially good, due entirely to the skillful reading of Kathleen McInerney...one doesn't ordinarily begin an audio review with plaudits for the reader, but in a few cases it's entirely justified, and this is one of them." (NJ.com)
