Anthony and Marty Hirschler are part of an Old Order Mennonite community in Pine Hill, Indiana. The couple has grown apart since a doctor confirmed they would never have children. Marty longs to escape the tight-knit area where large families are valued, and the opportunity to do so arises when her childhood friend, Brooke Spalding, resurfaces with the wild idea of rebuilding a ghost town into a resort community. Brooke hires Anthony to help with the construction, drawing the Hirschlers away from Indiana and into her plan, and then finds herself diagnosed with cancer.

Story comes too strong wrong way save tbe credit
The insurance part of the story, just too much too believe. The Mennonite part very sappy and slow. Not author's usual style. Skip this makes Christians out to be unChristian the shunning part is rough and sad. The whole book over reaches.
