Lamb to the Slaughter by Karen Ann Hopkins
4.0
"The Blood Rock Amish Community was anything but picturesque under it's pretty facade."
Hopkins woven a story that instantly pulls you in to the story and will keep you turning the pages!
The gripping story is about Serenity, the new sheriff in town. And although she's new, she already had a dead girl on her plate and as she was trying to solve the case, she was surprise by the nonchalant reaction of the Amish community since the dead girl was one of their own.
Serenity is the definition of badass! I miss reading female characters like her. She is a little stubborn, yes, but very strong and brave. And there's Daniel. Can I just say how I looove the Daniel POV's. Is there still guys out there like Daniel? Gosh, I hope so. The side characters were all written well and no one is a waste. They all have back stories that was explained and it made the story more interesting.
This was written in three POV's. Three!! I'll be honest and say that I'm not a fan of switching POV's but it worked really well in this story. Hopkins is an amazing writer and the whole story is just very easy to get into. The pacing is perfect and there's no dull chapter. I like getting inside of their heads (especially Daniel's).
The mystery is sooo well crafted. I actually suspected every character in the story and how the culprit was revealed was just impeccably done! As I progress in the story, I also found myself intrigued by the Amish community and their ways. I don't have any experience with any Amish but I would say that this was researched.
I'm really hoping though that this will be a series. I have a feeling that there's still hidden mysteries in Blood Rock and I want to see more of Serenity and Daniel!
Lamb to the Slaughter will keep you at the edge of your seat. Don't miss this nail biting experience!!
