A hidden postcard unlocks a story of faith, community, and second chances.

From New York Times bestselling author Beverly Lewis A Long‑Forgotten Message Threatens a Community United in Secrecy. Rachel Yoder, a New Order Amish woman, lost her husband and son in a tragic accident two years ago.

Returning to her aging parents with her young daughter, she has resigned herself to the life of a widow and helps run a bed‑and‑breakfast in rural Lancaster County. Philip Bradley, a world‑weary journalist from New York City on assignment to write about the Amish community, becomes their guest. A chance discovery by Philip of a postcard written in illegible Pennsylvania Dutch in the dresser of his room sets off a chain of events that leads him into the heart of Amish life and to the bedside of a mysterious woman known only as “The Storyteller.” With the postcard as a link to a haunted past, the woman weaves a riveting tale as old as herself about a community shuttered in secrecy and shattered by betrayal, gradually drawing Philip and Rachel’s lives together as they each search for truth, healing, and love.
