Description
|
|
|
|
Professor Branden becomes suspicious about a fatal accident involving an Amish buggy and an 18-wheeler, in this third mystery in the series—particularly after the trustee for the victim's estate disappears a few days later. Since he looks Amish himself, the professor acts as a decoy to uncover a link between the crash and a spate of other disturbing events: buggies being robbed on dusty lanes, land swindles involving out-of-town developers, and a bank official gone missing. P.L. Gaus's "kind, gentle, and intriguing" (Tony Hillerman) mystery series, set in Ohio's Amish country, explores the moral and legal conundrums of Professor Michael Branden, Sheriff Bruce Robertson, and Pastor Cal Troyer as they set out to uncover truths hidden away in their otherwise quiet corner of the world. Along the way, Gaus paints a unique portrait of a culture making its way side by side with contemporary American life.
