Ze schrijft misdaadromans die zich afspelen in de Amish-gemeenschappen van het Amerikaanse Midwesten — een wereld die ze, gevoed door haar Ohio-jeugd, als decor gebruikt voor verhalen waarin geslotenheid, geloof en geweld tegen elkaar schuren. Voor ze de overstap maakte naar de thriller publiceerde ze een lange reeks romantic suspense-titels.\n\nCastillo's vroege werk verscheen vanaf 2000 bij uitgeverijen als Silhouette, Harlequin en Berkley: titels als Remember the Night, The Perfect Victim en de Operation: Midnight-reeks. In dat decennium bouwde ze een degelijk fundament in de romantische spanningsroman op, met onderscheidingen als de Daphne du Maurier Award en de Holt Medallion, en nominaties voor onder meer de RITA Award en de International Thriller Writers Award voor Best Hardcover.\n\nDe doorbraak kwam in 2009 met Sworn to Silence, het eerste deel in de Kate Burkholder-reeks. Hoofdpersoon Kate is politiechef in een fictief stadje in Ohio en zelf opgegroeid in de Amish-gemeenschap die ze achter zich liet — een dubbele positie die haar toegang geeft tot zaken waarin buitenstaanders stuklopen. Het boek werd een New York Times- en USA Today-bestseller en verfilmd door Lifetime als An Amish Murder, met Neve Campbell in de hoofdrol. De reeks combineert klassieke procedural-elementen met een nauwgezette beschrijving van Amish-leven; thema's als zwijgplicht, schuld en gemeenschapsdruk keren in vrijwel elk deel terug.\n\nNa Sworn to Silence verschenen onder meer Pray for Silence (2010), Breaking Silence (2011), Her Last Breath (2013), The Dead Will Tell (2014), A Gathering of Secrets (2018), Shamed (2019) en Fallen (2021). Recentere delen zijn The Hidden One (2022), An Evil Heart (2023), The Burning (2024) en Rage (2025). Daarnaast schreef Castillo een groeiende verzameling Kate Burkholder-novellen, deels gebundeld in A Simple Murder (2021).\n\nIn Nederland verschijnt Castillo bij HarperCollins; eerdere Nederlandse vertalingen kwamen uit bij A.W. Bruna, waaronder Zwijgplicht (2020) en Voor altijd stil (2020). Wie de reeks nog niet kent, begint het beste bij Zwijgplicht — de Nederlandse vertaling van Sworn to Silence en het natuurlijke startpunt waarin Kate Burkholder, het stadje Painters Mill en de Amish-achtergrond worden geïntroduceerd. Wie van traag opbouwende thrillers met een sterk gevoel voor plaats houdt, vindt hier een reeks die inmiddels ruim vijftien delen telt.",{"title":27,"description":28,"h1":5,"primary_keyword":29,"secondary_keywords":30,"tagline":36},"Linda Castillo — Amish-thrillers met Kate Burkholder | volgendboek.nl","Linda Castillo schrijft de Kate Burkholder-thrillers in Amish-Ohio.

A KILLER IS PREYING ON SACRED GROUND.... In the sleepy rural town of Painters Mill, Ohio, the Amish and “English” residents have lived side by side for two centuries. But sixteen years ago, a series of brutal murders shattered the peaceful farming community. In the aftermath of the violence, the town was left with a sense of fragility, a loss of innocence. Kate Burkholder, a young Amish girl, survived the terror of the Slaughterhouse Killer but came away from its brutality with the realization that she no longer belonged with the Amish. Now, a wealth of experience later, Kate has been asked to return to Painters Mill as chief of police. Her Amish roots and big city law enforcement background make her the perfect candidate. She’s certain she’s come to terms with her past—until the first body is discovered in a snowy field. Kate vows to stop the killer before he strikes again.

The Plank family moved from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, to join the small Amish community of Painters Mill less than a year ago and seemed the model of the Plain Life—until on a cold October night, the entire family of seven was found slaughtered on their farm. Police Chief Kate Burkholder and her small force have few clues, no motive, and no suspect. Formerly Amish herself, Kate is no stranger to the secrets the Amish keep from the English—and each other—but this crime is horribly out of the ordinary. State agent John Tomasetti arrives on the scene to assist. He and Kate worked together on a previous case during which they began a volatile relationship. They soon realize the disturbing details of this case will test their emotional limits and force them to face demons from their own troubled pasts—and for Kate, a personal connection that is particularly hard to bear. When she discovers a diary that belonged to one of the teenaged daughters, Kate is shocked to learn the girl kept some very dark secrets and may have been living a lurid double life. Who is the charismatic stranger who stole the young Amish girl's heart? Could the brother—a man with a violent past, rejected and shunned by his family and the Amish community, have come to seek out revenge? As Kate's outrage grows so does her resolve to find the killer and bring him to justice—even if it means putting herself in the line of fire. Topping her own bestselling debut, Linda Castillo once again immerses us in the world of the Amish with a chilling story that is both a fast-paced thriller and intriguing psychological puzzle.",333,"1429920815","9781429920810","https:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com\u002Fbooks\u002Fcontent?id=VlOXC3Pr2KkC&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&edge=curl&source=gbs_api","http:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com.my\u002Fbooks?id=VlOXC3Pr2KkC&printsec=frontcover&dq=inauthor:%22Linda+Castillo%22&hl=&cd=3&source=gbs_api",{"title":70,"authors":71,"publisher":72,"publishedDate":73,"description":74,"pageCount":17,"language":44,"isbn10":75,"isbn13":76,"thumbnail":77,"previewLink":78},"Breaking Silence",[5],"MacMillan","2011","The \"New York Times\"-bestselling series hailed as gripping (\"People\") returns with Police Chief Kate Burkholder called to the scene of a horrific tragedy on a peaceful Amish farm.","0230752357","9780230752351","https:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com\u002Fbooks\u002Fcontent?id=XcSq0AEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&source=gbs_api","http:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com.my\u002Fbooks?id=XcSq0AEACAAJ&dq=inauthor:%22Linda+Castillo%22&hl=&cd=4&source=gbs_api",{"title":80,"subtitle":49,"authors":81,"publisher":51,"publishedDate":82,"description":83,"pageCount":84,"language":44,"isbn10":85,"isbn13":86,"thumbnail":87,"previewLink":88},"The Dead Will Tell",[5],"2014-07-08","A Boston Globe Best Book of 2014 Everyone in Painters Mill knows the abandoned Hochstetler farm is haunted.

And chief of Police Kate Burkholder knows that in order to solve this case she will have to call upon everything she has to give not only as a cop, but as a woman whose own Amish roots run deep. Kate and state agent, John Tomasetti, delve into the lives of the missing teen and discover links to cold cases that may go back years. But will Kate piece together all the parts of this sinister puzzle in time to save the missing teen and the Amish community from a devastating fate? Or will she find herself locked in a fight to the death with a merciless killer?",302,"125001090X","9781250010902","https:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com\u002Fbooks\u002Fcontent?id=1xVzmXClaIgC&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&edge=curl&source=gbs_api","http:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com.my\u002Fbooks?id=1xVzmXClaIgC&printsec=frontcover&dq=inauthor:%22Linda+Castillo%22&hl=&cd=15&source=gbs_api",{"title":80,"authors":189,"publisher":190,"publishedDate":191,"description":192,"pageCount":193,"language":44,"isbn10":194,"isbn13":195,"thumbnail":196,"previewLink":197},[5],"Center Point","2014-11-01","\"While investigating a murder, Chief of Police Kate Burkholder finds herself chasing an elusive trail of evidence that points back to a terrible night thirty-five years ago, when an Amish father and his four children perished--and his young wife disappeared without a trace\"--",391,"1628993286","9781628993288","https:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com\u002Fbooks\u002Fcontent?id=4VmsoAEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&source=gbs_api","http:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com.my\u002Fbooks?id=4VmsoAEACAAJ&dq=inauthor:%22Linda+Castillo%22&hl=&cd=16&source=gbs_api",{"title":199,"authors":200,"publisher":201,"publishedDate":202,"description":203,"pageCount":204,"language":205,"isbn10":206,"isbn13":207,"thumbnail":208,"previewLink":209},"Voor altijd stil",[5],"A.W.

When a young woman is found murdered in a Painters Mill motel, Chief of Police Kate Burkholder is shocked to discover she once knew the victim. Rachael Schwartz was a charming but troubled Amish girl who left the fold years ago and fled Painters Mill. Why was she back in town? And who would kill her so brutally? Kate remembers Rachael as the only girl who was as bad at being Amish as Kate was—and those parallels dog her. But the more Kate learns about Rachael's life, the more she's convinced that her dubious reputation was deserved. As a child, Rachael was a rowdy rulebreaker whose decision to leave devastated her parents and best friend. As an adult, she was charismatic and beautiful, a rabble-rouser with a keen eye for opportunity no matter who got in her way. Her no-holds-barred lifestyle earned her a lot of love and enemies aplenty—both English and Amish. As the case heats to a fever pitch and long-buried secrets resurface, a killer haunts Painters Mill. Someone doesn’t want Rachael’s past—or the mysteries she took with her to the grave—coming to light. As Kate digs deeper, violence strikes again, this time hitting close to home. Will Kate uncover the truth and bring a murderer to justice?
