Description
Although she left her Old Order Amish ways in her youth, Rachel discovered corporate life in the English world to be complicated and unfulfilling. Having returned to Stone Mill, she’s happy to be running her own B&B. But she’s also learning—in more ways than one—that the past is not always so easily left behind.
After local newspaperman Bill Billingsly is found gagged and tied to his front porch, left to freeze overnight in a snowstorm, Detective Evan Parks—Rachel’s beau—uncovers a file of scandalous information Billingsly intended to publish, including a record of Rachel pleading no contest to charges of corporate misconduct. Though Evan is certain of her innocence, it’s up to Rachel to find the real killer. A closer examination of the victim’s unpublished report leads Rachel to believe the Amish community is far from sinless. But if she’s not careful her obituary might be the next to appear in print…

Book 3 in An Amish Mystery series, Plain Dead, finds Rachel Mast again in the middle of helping the police to find a killer. However, this time there is more at stake. Her own freedom may be jeopardized if she cannot figure out who the real killer might be.
Rachel and the town in starting a new adventure in the Winter Frolic. A chance to bring tourists and locals out in the wintery weather in order to play, shop, and enjoy the snow and ice. Will it be successful? All seems to be going well until the body of Bill Billingsly is found frozen on his front porch. Was it an accident? Who would leave someone out to die? With Bill being on most everyone's bad list, the list of suspects could be long. With Bill gathering compromising information on just about everyone, what would be so bad that it could lead to murder in this quiet and peaceful Amish community. Rachel must sort through the evidence to find if the Amish community is really as peaceful as they seem. Along with her fiancé, Evan Parks, Rachel must face her past and the past of some of her closest and most trusted people.
This is a great addition to the series. Emma Miller creates both scenes and characters that a reader can relate to. I would highly recommend this and any of her books for those wanting a nice cozy mystery.
