The Ettie Smith Amish Mysteries series follows Ettie Smith, an 80+ year-old Amish widow, and her slightly older sister, Elsa-May, as they stumble into one mystery after another in their quiet Amish community. These two amateur sleuths have plenty of wit, determination, and a knack for finding trouble. Along the way, they clash with the ever-grumpy Detective Kelly, whose patience is constantly tested by Ettie’s meddling—though she’d argue she’s just being helpful.
This cozy mystery series is packed with quirky characters, sisterly banter, and plenty of shenanigans, making it a delightful blend of humor and suspense. Fans of lighthearted whodunits with a touch of Amish charm will love following Ettie and Elsa-May as they outwit criminals, solve baffling cases, and keep their community on its toes.
