  When fourteen-year-old Samuel Hershberger and his nine-year-old sister Judith witness their daed's death in the family cornfield, their lives are irrevocably changed. Seven years later, Judith confronts her helplessness by taking on a calling to heal, but will she be able to reconcile her love of Englischer medicine with her life as an Amish woman and growing love for Isaac, a visiting preacher's handsome son? And what about Samuel, who at twenty-one is still unable to decide between an Englischer or Amish life? Will Miriam Umble, the beautiful and troubled Amish girl who Samuel agrees to help return home to Elkhart, Indiana, be the key to restoring his faith? Or will their secrets break each other's hearts?
