Items related to Pray for Silence (Kate Burkholder series, 2)
The sound of a scream in the early morning dawn leads to a case that will change Kate Burkholder's life irrevocably . . .
When the police arrive at the Amish farmstead in Painters Mill they can't imagine the horror that awaits them. An entire family slaughtered: the men shot, the young women tortured and killed. The Amish are peace-loving, gentle folk and the town is shocked by what appears to be a particularly brutal - and random killing. But is it random?
Every family has its secrets. Kate knows that better than anyone. And as she and Agent John Tomasetti dig deeper into the victims' lives they discover a young woman who was living a lie. A girl who had to live in silence.
With her own past resonating - Kate knows she has to maintain some distance. From the case, and from Tomasetti. She knows what could happen if she gets too close. But when she puts herself in the line of fire - she realizes that, this time, there may be no going back.
'Think of the movie Witness and add just a touch of the Coen brothers' Fargo and you have the feel for this brilliant, nail-biting thriller' Daily Mail

Review:
"Though the violence level is high, the brutality is offset by Kate's and her team's very capable police procedure and investigation. Another solid effort that will appeal to fans of Karin Slaughter and Tami Hoag."--"Library Journal" "Another knock-out job. I love this series."--Alex Kava "Castillo excels at detailing gory crimes scenes."--"Publishers Weekly" "[The] unique setting and a very human heroine make this a good recommendation for readers seeking an alternative to the urban whodunit."--"Booklist" "The second book in Castillo's series is . . . as well crafted, interesting and unique as the first. The combination of Amish life and the brutal work of a police chief create plenty of tension and excitement."--"Romantic Times" (Top Pick, 4 1/2 stars) "With a serial killer and now a mass murder in tiny Painters Mill, Castillo will need to be inventive to maintain the plausibility in this addictive series. Fortunately, she seems up to the task."--"Akron"" Beacon Journal" "Castillo keeps the pace quick, the story compelling, and her manner towards the Amish reverent."--Katherine Osborne, Indiebound
