Samantha Price has again has given us a delightful mystery involving elderly sleuth sisters, Ettie and Elsa-May. This time, it involves an antique dealer and a mysterious antique key. Dial M for Mennonite is the latest in the Ettie Smith Mystery Books.

In her special way of writing, Samantha Price shares a delightful mystery that keeps you guessing with ever turn of the page. This book will make its debut September 25, 2024.

Ettie and Elsa-May can get themselves involved even when their Amish community is not. These are precious Amish ladies that you feel like you know personally, or maybe they are part of your family.

The story develops normally, but you want guess who the Murderer is until the very end.

I highly suggest that you pre-order a copy of the 5-star read, M for Mennonite. You will not be disappointed in the story.

I was given an ARC by the author, but was not required to give a positive review. All opinions are my own.

Elsa-May and Ettie, the local sleuths, never fail to entertain, surprise and delight as they attempt to solve the world’s (theirs, at least!) problems. The banter between the two, their two adorable fur babies, Snowy and Kelly, their penchant for uncovering even the smallest of details when it comes to solving a mystery, always fascinates and intrigues me, drawing me into their world of justice! The author has an uncanny ability to make a story fun and witty all while adding that surprise element of danger, providing the reader the complete package! I was given a complimentary copy of this book and am providing my honest opinion.

Samantha Price was a new author to me within the last year or so.  I was first introduced to her Amish Bonnet Sisters' books.  I then received a book about two sisters who help solve crimes in their community.

This book is about Ettie and Elsa-May, sisters, who find themselves not only involved in murder mysteries but become part of them.  They just can't help themselves. 

This book is no exception.  And what a joy it was to read how they figure out whodonit!! 

Great characters.  Love this cover.

There is Sherlock Holmes then there is Ettie and Elsa May

This was a great book. Those 2 old amish ladies sure know how to find trouble and fast. There are funny moments for sure. You can’t help but love them and always wonder if they will get out of the predicaments they innocently find themselves in. Detective Kelly keeps them on his radar to keep up with their investigations and to keep them safe.

Elsa-May and Ettie are the best “detectives” for any case!! The sisters bring so much wit, fun and charm to Dial M for Mennonite you won’t be able to put it down. When asked for help to solve a strange mystery the sister unknowingly agree to much more!!! This is a great read as you journey along with the characters in search for clues.

The best cozy mystery I've ever read

Between the quirky and loveable characters, twist upright plot, and engrossing plot, this book is one of the best I've EVER read. I can't wait to read the others in this series as well as all of those this author has written. Definitely my new favorite author.

I’ve read several series by this author, but this is the only one I really love. I borrow them from Kindle Unlimited, but I’ve read all of the series in the order they were written. The elderly sisters are hilarious and have many endearing idiosyncrasies. A fun, quick read.

In this next book in the Ettie Smith Amish Mystery series, the sisters are at it once again.
I have to say, I laughed so hard at their silly & funny antics! These sisters are hilarious doing investigations, and the way they go about them.
This story has so many directions of suspicious suspects, that Ettie and Elsa-May have to go to extremes with their investigating & questioning.
The two of them made me laugh with the wild antics they pulled in this story. I got to laughing to the point of tears.
I don't want to give anything away, this early before release, but I will say, the case comes to them, and not by whom you think it would be!!
YOU have to read this book, especially, if you have read the previous ones!! You won't be disappointed, I guarantee.
****I received an ARC from the author, and these are my own words & opinions****
