520 1 $a"The small town of Paradise, Pennsylvania, is a jewel in Lancaster County - known for its picture-postcard landscapes and bucolic lifestyle. But that peace is shattered by the discovery of a dead infant in the barn of an Amish farmer. A police investigation quickly leads to two startling disclosures: the newborn's mother is an unmarried Amish woman, eighteen-year-old Katie Fisher. And the infant did not die of natural causes.
520 8 $aAlthough Katie denies the medical proof that she gave birth to the child, circumstantial evidence leads to her arrest for the murder of her baby.".
520 8 $a"One hundred miles away, Philadelphia defense attorney Ellie Hathaway has achieved an enviable, high-profile career. Fate brings her to Katie Fisher. Suddenly, Ellie sees the chance to defend a client who truly needs her, not just one who can afford her. But taking on this case challenges Ellie in more ways than one.
520 8 $aShe finds herself not only in a clash of wills with a client who does not want to be defended but also in a clash of cultures with a people whose channels of justice are markedly different from her own.".
520 8 $a"Immersing herself in Katie Fisher's life - and in a world founded on faith, humility, duty, and honesty - Ellie begins to understand the pressures and sacrifices of those who live "plain". As she peels away the layers of fact and fantasy, Ellie calls on an old friend for guidance. Now, just as this man from Ellie's past reenters her life, she must uncover the truth about a complex case, a tragic loss, the bonds of love - and her own deepest fears and desires."--BOOK JACKET.
