The Shunning
by Beverly Lewis
In the quiet Amish community of Hickory Hollow, Pennsylvania, time has stood still while cherished traditions and heartfelt beliefs have flourished. But a secret lies buried that could shatter the tranquility its inhabitants have grown to love.
When Katie Lapp finds the satin infant gown in the trunk in her parents' attic, she knows it holds a secret she must discover. Why else would her Amish mother, a plain and simple woman who embraces the Old Order laws, hide the beautiful baby dress in the attic? But nothing could have prepared Katie for the startling news that stumbles out of her anguished parents on the eve of her wedding to Bishop John.

The Confession
by Beverly Lewis
A reader writes: "The Shunning was a great book but the end left me hanging in the air. What happens to Katie? With finding out about The Confession and reading it I felt like I was right there with Katie, but I was left hanging in the air again. I have read Amish books in the past but nothing this fantastic. These two books have a spot in my heart, plus I have learned more about the Amish."
