Review of Amish Lilies By the Lakeside
by Teresa Ann Phillips
Esther Schwartz has suffered from loneliness, fear, and guilt ever since her baby sister was abducted and killed. Making things worse, she and her windowed mother have a huge farm to run, and her brother's son has a mysterious illness. 
When an apple orchard is suddenly given to her and the orchard manager's secrets are unraveled, she learns that her close-knit Amish community is being tested: will they fall apart or lean on the three things that they are known for: forgiveness, love and faith.
Esther's worked alongside Trey Peachy for years, but when the community is on the lookout for a killer, she is forced to help him. As they hunt down a killer, they each discover that God had planted a seed of love many years earlier. Can they still bond with so much tragedy and with different faiths?


My thoughts about Amish Lilies by the Lakeside:
I enjoyed this story very much!  It begins with a very sad happening when Esther's baby sister is abducted and killed.    The story is a quick-read and one that is sure to bring a smile to the face of the reader.   Do check out this book!
