Caleb's Cross

By Urcelia Teixeira

Description:

Beneath the surface of perfection, darkness festers in unexpected places.

A nearby quiet town becomes the backdrop for a perplexing murder mystery when a chiropractor is found dead. Sheriff Angus Reid is tasked with solving the strange case that plunges him deep into the lives of a nearby Amish community. With no apparent clues and a seemingly fruitless autopsy, Angus is determined to uncover the truth behind the mysterious death.

Meanwhile, local Weyport resident, Caleb Townsend, carries a secret of his own. Torn between his Amish upbringing and his newfound freedom, he stumbles upon a connection between the deceased and his distant sister, Rachel--who as it happens, was the last person to see the chiropractor alive.

But when Rachel suddenly disappears from the very Amish community Caleb turned his back on, matters become more complicated for both him and Angus.
As Caleb sets out to find his sister before Angus does, confronting his past and his estranged family along the way, Angus discovers there may be more to the case than meets the eye.

And as the facade of perfection slowly crumbles, more victims turn up dead...

This suspenseful murder mystery will keep you guessing until the very end.
Caleb's Cross is book 3 in the Angus Reid Mysteries Series

Book Takeaway:

Faith is action, not perception!

Why the author wrote this book:

The Amish lifestyle has always intrigued me—a quiet, peaceful life with faith at the center. Sounds idyllic. But, upon satisfying my own curiosity with online research, I discovered a news article about the appalling increase in sexual abuse among the Amish. Before I knew it, my mind had conjured up a murder mystery!
