After an Amish boy witnesses a murder, a detective steps in to protect him and his mother. When the detective’s own life is threatened, he takes refuge in their rural community, where he must adapt to a very different way of life while danger remains close.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like crime stories that mix suspense with a culture clash and quieter character moments; Not for you if you want nonstop action or a consistently brisk pace.
