Overview:

Dok Stoltzfus decides to follow her husband’s advice and take on some students to help with her work load. Two are new medical residents; Wren, very sharp and at the top of her class but not always as caring and understanding as she could be and Charlie, at the bottom of the class but discerning and caring. Add to the mix, nurse Evie Miller who is a delight to work with and in love with Charlie to boot, adding one more complication to the mix.

As always balancing modern medicine with Amish old ways and making everyone happy is not an easy task. Dok’s brother, the bishop, is always a wonderful character in these books, making the reader wish David was her pastor or neighbor or brother. His wisdom makes a difference is so many scenarios.

Readers will once again be delighted with living in Stoney Ridge and observing the Amish way of life.
