My Review
I have always enjoyed this author's books and this one is no exception.
This is the start of a new series and takes place in near Nappanee, Indiana.
I enjoyed reading about the Indians that lived in this area many years ago and the author tells us about interesting research books to look at to further our knowledge of these Indians.
A young woman leaves California after a failed relationship going to
her Amish grandmother's farm .
She's not planning on staying long, just to get herself together a bit after the breakup but becomes involved in a case of a missing Amish girl.
Presented with a hard choice she must make between her past and present life will she choose security or let past memories rule her?
I enjoyed getting to know quilt shop owner Jane Berger who is also the local historian. She is a smart woman and presented interesting facts about the Indians who lived in the area.
Looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

GoodReads Summary
When Savannah Mast's fiance dumps her a week before their wedding, she flees California for the safety of her Amish grandmother's farm near Nappanee, Indiana. She's not planning on staying long but becomes unexpectedly entangled in the search for a missing Amish girl. She can't leave--especially not when her childhood friend Tommy Yoder is implicated
as a suspect.
When Savannah accompanies her grandmother to Plain Patterns, a nearby quilt shop, the owner and local historian, Jane Berger, relates a tale about another woman's disappearance back in the 1800s that has curious echoes to today.
Inspired by the story, Savannah does all she can to find the Amish girl and clear Tommy's name. But when her former fiance shows up, begging her to return to California and marry him after all, she must choose between accepting the security of what he has to offer or continuing the complicated legacy of her family's faith.
