Book Summary

Kathryn "Kappy" King is happy being a plain-spoken unmarried odd-woman-out in her Pennsylvania Amish hometown. Her talent is making the special kapps local women use to cover their hair. But her skill at uncovering trouble in this quiet valley is about to be truly tested . . . At first, young Sally June Esh's tragic death doesn't look like murder. Even in peaceful Blue Sky, collisions between buggies and Englisch cars aren't unheard of. Still, the Eshes are skilled drivers used to delivering their popular pickles for miles around. And after Kappy notices Sally's buggy was deliberately run off the road, her ex-Amish friend Edie gets strange texts saying the crash was no accident . . .

Kappy won't let her community's silence keep justice from being done. And even though a still-shunned Edie thinks of moving back to the city, she and Kappy start rooting out secrets about the Eshes' long-time neighbors--and new pickle-producing rivals. But when they learn that Sally's brother is secretly courting an Englisch girl, their investigation takes a disturbing turn.

My review

This is the first Amish mystery I've read by Amy Lillard but far from the first book I've read by her . There were some laugh out loud moments in this book for me. It kept me entertained trying to figure the ins and outs of the mystery. Every time I thought I had it solved the book took off in a gallop in a whole other direction with a new suspect.I really enjoyed reading 'Kappy King and the Pickle Kaper'. There were twists everywhere, that I didn't expect, which kept me guessing until the end. Pub Date 26 Jun 2018 I received a copy of this book from the author/ Kensington Books through NetGalley. All opinions are my own.
