Broken English by P. L. Gaus

Jesse Sands is captured and jailed for the murder of Janet Hawkins. Her father, David Hawkins, is seeking the simple life of the Amish community. When Sheriff Bruce Robertson seeks Hawkins after yet another murder in the community, Hawkins drops out of sight causing Robertson to focus on only him as the murderer. Professor Michael Branden and Pastor Caleb Troyer, friends of the sheriff, are convinced Hawkins is not seeking vengeance and that there has to be another explanation. Gaus writes a convincing and exciting tale of intrigue in a quiet community, sure to entertain.
