Time goes on. Long kept secrets are finally divulged. Leah is instrumental in bringing some things to light, but parts are still hidden. She shows a flash of true anger on her sister Sadie’s behalf, and it seems a little out of character for her. A chance encounter with someone she hasn’t seen in many years jolts her. The characters are interesting and the story, if somewhat contrived with the characters’ ancestry, is still quite entertaining. ( )

Time has brought many changes to the Ebersol family and their community. Leah is caring for her younger siblings and is still a maidel living in her father's home. Sadie has returned from Ohio, but is she repentant and disciplined enough to prove herself to her family and the community? Lydiann is a young woman experiencing love and courtship for the first time. Mary Ruth is married and expecting her first child, while her twin Hannah is courting a budding interest in healing. As life goes on on the Ebersol farm, a visitor comes that will shake their foundations of faith, love, and hope.

Book 4 of the Abrahm's Daughters series did not disappoint. Really, this is a great series that is a page turner and always leaves you asking "What is going to happen???" ( )
