Breaking Silence

A frantic call summons Chief of Police Kate Burkholder to a farm in the Amish community of Painters Mill. Rachel and Solly Slabaugh and his brother Abel have drowned in the hog pit leaving their four children orphaned. Then a routine autopsy reveals that one of the victims suffered a head wound and it becomes clear that foul play was involved. As the case progresses Kate develops a bond with the children particularly the daughter Solome. Having grown up Amish herself Kate is determined to bring the killer to justice. As the truth emerges it becomes clear there is a dark secret at work beneath the placid façade - a secret that turns a tragedy into something much more shocking.
