THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR
‘It is impossible not to be held spellbound by the way she forces us to think, hard, about right and wrong.’ Washington Post
Katie Fisher is Amish. For eighteen years, she has grown up in a community set apart from the modern world by lifestyle and belief. It is a community fiercely protective of its way of life. To turn your back on it is to lose everything – your church, your home, and your family.
So in the middle of the night when the baby comes, Katie does the only thing she knows how to do in times of stress: she prays.
Exhausted, she falls asleep. When she wakes, the child is gone. Her prayer has been answered.
But faith alone cannot help when the baby’s body is found.
THE BOOK OF TWO WAYS, Jodi’s stunning new novel about life, death and missed opportunities is available to pre-order now.
