I dont know if the killer/s were supposed to be a big mystery, but it had a decent conclusion with fun action and lore. The inclusion of Amish culture made for an interesting read, and an ex-amish cop an even more interesting main protagonist. The characters themselves just weren't that compelling making the story a little dull.
