Ettie Smith Amish Mysteries #8
Amish False Witness
Ettie's sister, Florence Lapp, is in trouble.
Her house has burned down, and her gun is missing.
When Florence announces she's staying with Ettie and Elsa-May until the case is solved, Ettie is spurred on to make that happen, and fast.
Events take a more serious turn when the gun shows up and is linked to a murder.
Ettie finds out that Florence has some odd friends, and one of them has been charged over the shooting.
Florence insists her friend is innocent even though the DNA evidence proves otherwise.
Can Ettie sort out the lies from the truth and get her sister out of her house before there is another murder—one slightly closer to home?

Can I get a Witness?
To quote the author who quoted Isaiah: Isaiah 41:10 AMP Fear not [there is nothing to fear], for I am with you; do not look around you in terror and be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen and harden you to difficulties, yes, I will help you; yes, I will hold you up and retain you with My [victorious] right hand of rightness and justice. [Acts 18:10.]
Ettie again helps the detective work out the case. What a quirk that a guy's twin brother is the false witness against the guy in jail.

Florence one of Ettie and Elsa May's sisters comes to get help for her friends grandson that is in jail for a murder he says he didn't do. He is a friend from a time when Florence was out of the community. Florence's house has been burned down and her gun stolen and proved to have been used in two armed robberies and murders two years before. They find out who did those. They find Dustin (the grandson ) has a twin. And they also find out he is not very nice. Very good mystery

Quoting the book which quotes Isaiah: Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isaiah 41:10.
It took some work for the truth to come out and Ettie was right in the thick of it.

I enjoyed this book, but not as much as some of her others. It was kind of slow with less excitement, but it was still a good clean read.

A good mystery book
Well so many people in this story really kept me guessing who did what and why. It also had some cover ups and that would make it more difficult to find the right villain. I enjoyed this book from start to finish.

False Witness Review
I liked the e fact that I could read a good mystery without filthy language and sexual innuendos. Once you start reading it you couldn't put it down.

Great continuing series
Another great installment in the series. With this one we meet Florence another sister of Ettie and Elsa Mae's. Following along as the ladies try and prove the innocence of the guilty party provides several twists. The banter between the sisters is always fun. Anyone who enjoys a well written mystery will enjoy this series and fans of Amish fiction will certainly be pleased as well. I do recommend reading the series in order.

Very Good
This story really had me stomped, it gets very confusing at first,it seemed to be all mixed up at first. I have read many of these mysteries and I do say I was confused. If you like a good mystery to figure out I recommend this one.

A murder mystery.
The book was very well written with a lot of suspense. There were three murders which took place involving a gun and a strangulation.
