My thoughts ~

The Old Mill in Nappanee, Indiana is a tourist community where visitors can visit an Amish themed community and learn numerous techniques that the Amish employ in their daily living. Among the various venues is an Amish Market, a theater, a one room school house, an ice house, etc. 

David Stoltzfus, a widower living with his newly widowed daughter and her children has found working at the Amish Market, a satisfying and enjoyable job. Stella, a rather grumpy coworker doesn't appear to find any pleasure in her life but David offers her friendship anyway.

Characters in this warmhearted novella are charming, and for the most part, likable. Detailing regarding the Market are realistic and descriptive of a typical Amish community. Ms. Chapman does her homework and does it well! Mysterious events begin altering the atmosphere of the community,  igniting fear and anxiety.

David enlists Stella's assistance in unveiling the culprit or culprits behind the bizarre events. Stella is reluctant, but curious. Will they uncover the secrets behind these pranks, and how will that affect their friendship?

As with Ms. Chapman's other books, this one is filled with charm and mystique. Her approach to Amish fiction has a different twist from that of other authors, and I love that refreshing approach!
