OVERVIEW

Widower Mark Forster wants to protect his young daughter Allie more than anything else in the world. But a cloud hangs over him, the cloud of the murder of his wife. He has not been able to prove he is not the killer. Where will he be safe and most particularly, keep Allie safe?

Mark returns to his Amish roots and not surprisingly, Allie loves being surrounded by family, especially her cousin Ruthie. And she loves teacher Cathy who, of course, responds with love and caring. But the powers that be are still searching for Diana Forster’s murderer, causing embarrassment, unease and rumors throughout the Amish community.

How can Mark prove his innocence, who are these creeps hovering around and causing havoc and did Allie see some clue that might help solve this mystery? Of course, amidst all this is the growing affection between Michael and teacher Cathy.

An Amish romance entwined in a murder mystery-a winning combination for fans of Amish fiction.
