A New York reporter sent to Amish country to do an article on "the Plain people" finds a 40 yr old postcard in a desk at the Amish B & B where he is staying. His inquires regarding the sender of the postcard are met with guarded hostilities by his hosts. As he sets out to find the answers to the who and why of the postcard he finds allies in the blind daughter and the granddaughter of the B & B owners.
This is really 2 stories in one - the story of Phil - the reporter and the story of Rachel - the shy blind widow and single mother who lives with her parents and assists in the running of their business.
I found this story a bit slow at first and then it really grabbed me and I could not put the book down.
This story is continued in The Crossroad.
