A Brother's Love

5 stars, A Brother's Love THE PROTECTOR (MIFFLIN COUNTY MYSTERY BOOK 1) BY Wanda E. Brunstetter This book opens in Belleville, Pennsylvania with the eldest Petersheim girl, Rosa is late. Her older brother Norman becomes concerned, because he has a close relationship with Rosa, since they are close in age. Their family discovers that Rosa is not only late, but she is missing. Their mother has health problems and worrying about Rosa isn't helping her. Their father is unforgiving, saying that he will not welcome Rosa back into the family if she ever comes home. Norman feels torn up inside, because he didn't keep Rosa safe. He looks everywhere for her, even going to the police, but with no picture, the police can't do much. Norman's girlfriend Salina finds that she has been tossed aside, by Norman's obsession with finding Rosa. She doesn't know what to do, since she has a deep love for Norman. No one in their Amish community understands the guilt that Norman feels since Rosa disappeared. This is a trilogy, you can read the book as a stand-alone, but it would be better, if you could read all three of the books. I like the way that the author injects Pennsylvania Dutch words into her books and in the next sentence will it will tell you what that word means. Her books are almost like they are teaching you bits of a different language, different to me, anyways. I like learning about the Amish, a lot of them seem like really nice people. The author writes clean, wholesome Christian or inspirational books, but she doesn't have her characters come across as pushy in regards to religion, they are simply delightful books. I think it's adorable that Tena calls a rabbit Bun-Bun, that is our family name for rabbits as well. Highly recommended.
