Summary:
In the quiet Amish community of Hickory Hollow, Pennsylvania, time has stood still while cherished traditions and heartfelt beliefs have flourished. But a secret lies buried that could shatter the tranquility its inhabitants have grown to love. When Katie Lapp stumbles upon a satin infant gown in the dusty leather trunk of her parents' attic, she knows it holds a story she must discover. Why else would her Amish mother, a plain and simple woman who embraces the Old Order laws, hide the beautiful baby dress in the attic? On the eve of Katie's weddding to widower Bishop John, startling news staggers out of her anguished parents, and nothing prepares Katie for the devasation their confession brings. Feeling betrayed, Katie watches as the only life she ever know begins to unravel, leaving in its wake a furrow of pain... and a future of hope.
