Murder in Plain Sight
“All around them were young people in sober Amish dress, all moving in the same direction. If it had not been for the noise, she’d have found it almost frightening.

Trey took her arm protectively when she stumbled over a rough patch in the lane. “Easy. You don’t want to take ...a header on the gravel.”

“You’ll be able to see better now.” They neared the barn, and Trey loosened his grip. “Tiki torches. I’ll bet that’s not something you associate with the Amish.”
“I have to confess, it never crossed my mind.”
Several torches lit the scene, helped by the glow of a bonfire.MoreLess
