A Plain Scandal By Amanda Flower Win it before you can buy it!


The people of Appleseed Creek in the heart of Ohio’s Amish Country are under attack. Soon after the dust has settled on a buggy accident that turned out to be murder, an unknown assailant begins cutting off the long hair of Amish women and the beards of Amish men.New to the area, computer specialist Chloe Humphrey may not share their customs, but she is certainly alarmed over these crimes against the Amish and worries how such events will impact her growing number of friends who are more connected to that way of life.In this small community, when Chloe discovers the body of an Amish businessman who was stabbed in the back and whose beard was cut off, she knows that finding the murderer and restoring peace to Appleseed Creek is as much her responsibility as anyone else’s.

Amanda's second book in the Appleseed Mystery is one you will not want to miss, I really enjoyed it. I could not put it down. I love who done it books and this one is very well written.
You are sure to fall in love with Amanda's writing as soon as you open the book and read the first page, you will be hooked.
Amanda is an Amish author to watch out for, she is going to be huge.
