Rachel was subject to daily abuse by her husband John. But the fear of being shunned after getting a divorce was more than she could take...so she endured...Her friend encourages her to leave...and one night she is beaten so severely that she has to be taken to the hospital...But when she arrives home, she finds her husband murdered and fingers are pointed around the Amish community. Could it be Samuel? The man who always pined for her. Or could it be her father who never liked her husband to begin with?

Her mother had always told Rachel, "Darling, divorce is for the weak that do not honor the decisions of our maker," whenever they heard community news or gossip about a broken marriage or divorce. It was just not something that her mother believed should be done - under any circumstances. And Rachel lived to please others. It was just the way that God had made her. She did not want to let her mother down. She did not want to let her community down. She did not believe for a minute that women that chose divorce were weak or sinful, but she feared the pain of being judged as weak. She feared the disappointment that she would incite in her family, especially her mother, if that would ever be something that she would need to consider...But what if it became the only option?
