Katie Lapp has always felt like she was different from everyone in her family. Hadn’t her Mammi said as much when she caught Katie humming a tune, “Lord have mercy-you’re like no little girl I ever knowed!” Plus, she was the only person in her whole Amish community who had red hair.
A week before Katie is to get married, an English woman in a black limousine, with the same red hair as Katie’s is seen by some of the Amish folk. The woman, desperate to find her daughter, leaves a letter with the Wise Woman of Hickory Hollow. The letter confirms Katie’s worst fears and greatest dreams all in one day.
In an effort to gain some form of her true identity, Katie calls off the wedding and is shunned by her Amish community in the process. Katie has six weeks to come to her senses and perform a kneeling confession or risk loosing her Amish family and friends forever.
This book had some unexpected twists and turns that kept me reading. I didn’t want to put the book down. Even the ending made me want to pick up the second book in this three book series to find out what happens next.
