Found by Shelley Shepard Gray (Book Three in the Crittenden County Series)

Hello Readers!

Return for the last book in this series to find out who really did kill Perry and how did he really die? Which relationships will make it through all this, and who's will come apart?

In the third and final book of this series we get all sorts of new relationships, answers to questions, history about Perry's family and sister, and a very close and in depth look at how this all came about. Of course, the perpetrator of the crime is found as well. At the same time it is a bit sad when you do find out! Ms. Gray might have to give us a different book about what happened to that person once they were arrested! Jacob isn't who you might have thought he is, but I am not about to tell you "who-done-it". You have to read it for yourself!

I rather don't like that the next series in her books is set somewhere else, but the first part of the book that is included at this end of this one showed a very strong female lead for the next series. I will have to decide if I really want to read that or not, but meanwhile I really enjoyed these three books! Missing is the first book, and The Search is the second.

ABOUT THE BOOK  

A murder is solved and a quiet Amish community must deal with the repercussions. Amid the surprising revelations, can a newfound love survive?

As the search for Perry Borntrager's killer continues, Jacob Schrock feels like his world is about to crumble. Right before Perry went missing, he and Jacob got into a fistfight. Jacob never told anyone what happened that terrible night. He's good at keeping secrets—including his love for Deborah, Perry's sister. But when Deborah takes a job at his family's store and their friendship blossoms, Jacob senses everything is about to be revealed.

Deborah has been searching for a slice of happiness ever since her brother's body was discovered. When the police start questioning Jacob, Deborah can't believe that the one person she's finally allowed in could be the one responsible for her brother's death. Will she believe what everyone seems to think is the truth . . . or listen to her heart, and hope there is still one more person who is keeping secrets in Crittenden County?
