Summary:
The Shunning, Katie Lapp stumbles upon a satin infant gown in the dusty leather trunk of her parents' attic and determines to discover the story behind it. Why would her mother, a Plain woman who embraces the ways of the Old Order, hide such a beautiful worldly gown?

The Confession, Katie is now torn from her close-knit community in the frightening ordeal known as shunning, and she sets out on a journey of discovery.

The Reckoning, Katie--now known as Katherine--is living the "fancy" life she always dreamed of. Yet she still grieves the loss of her Amish family and longs for the peace that reigned in her mother's heart.
