"The Guardian," by Beverly Lewis

"The Guardian," by Beverly Lewis
Come home to Hickory Hollow, Pennsylvania--the beloved setting where Beverly Lewis's celebrated Amish novels began--with new characters and new stories of drama, romance, and the ties that draw people together.

When Jodi Winfield comes to Lancaster to house-sit, the last thing she expects to find is a disheveled little girl alone on the side of the road. The young teacher is mystified when she learns there have been no reports of a missing child, and the girl herself is no help, since she can't speak English. It's as if the child appeared out of nowhere.

Then Jodi turns her attention to Hickory Hollow--and the cloistered world of the Old Order Amish--in search of answers.

As always another good book by Beverly Lewis.  If you like books about the Amish, with a little bit of mystery and romance mixed in, this is the book for you.  It's nothing earth shattering, but it is a book that will want you turning just one more page to see what happens next.  However that one more page turns into two, then three and before you know it, you've been sitting there until late into the night reading the whole book.........well that's what I did!!!

Stars out of 5 : 4.5 it's a good book, will I remember it in years to come probably not, but it's one I am glad I read and will look forward to reading more in the series.
