Matthew Zook and his new bride never imagined that their plans of expanding their store would be derailed by a 50-year-old tragedy. The deed to a portion of their property is still held by octogenarian Clayton Raber, who had been suspected in his wife's death five decades ago. Matthew never believed in Clayton's guilt, and the discovery of an ornately crafted clock containing love letters from Clayton to his deceased wife convinces Matthew of Clayton's innocence.
VERDICT The third series entry (after The Amish Groom and The Amish Blacksmith) is an inspiring story of the redemption that can be found in the truth. While Clayton is a quirky and memorable character, Matthew and his wife are a bit less engaging. Still, readers who follow the series as well as fans of Clark (The Amish Midwife) and Meissner (The Shape of Mercy) will want to pick up this title.
