In the seemingly ordinary Amish home of Grace Byler,
secrets abound. Why does her mother weep in the night? Why
does her father refuse to admit something is dreadfully
wrong? Then, in one startling moment, everything Grace
assumed she knew is shattered. Her mother's disappearance
leaves Grace reeling and unable to keep her betrothal
promise to her long-time beau. Left to pick up the pieces
of her life, Grace questions all she has been taught about
love, family, and commitment. Heather Nelson is an English
grad student, stunned by a doctor's diagnosis. Surely fate
would not allow her father to lose his only daughter after
the death of his wife a few years before. In denial and
telling no one she is terminally ill, Heather travels to
Lancaster County--the last place she and her mother had
visited together. Will Heather find healing for body and
spirit? As the lives of four wounded souls begin to weave
together like an Amish patchwork quilt, they each discover
missing pieces of their life puzzles--and glimpse the
merciful and loving hand of God.
