A new love is in her life and he is good. Her deeply engrained Amish roots are still in conflict with all she has learned and experienced. The Reckoning: Katherine is now head of the house and is again, finding herself and how to be of worth.
My only complaint about this part of the story is that there should have been some sort of confrontation with Laura’s husband, Dylan, and his hired actress, since all the servants figured out his diabolical plan. Her success at finding her mother brings its own challenges but she endures them with the same. So much courage! Katie, now Katherine, is struggling with finding herself in a world that is foreign to her. The shunning she had to endure was heartbreaking on so many levels. I felt only compassion for sweet Katie and the heartache she felt as her life drastically changed by her desire to know more of her birthmother. The Shunning: great intro to the characters, religion, atmosphere, and traditions. I admit I was consumed with the story from the very beginning. She knows me well enough and shares my reading passion, so I took it home and started reading about the Amish - of which I know very little about. My sweet cousin recommended this Amish trilogy.
