In the quiet Amish town of Quiet Dell, faith is the bedrock of life. But when a mysterious fever sweeps through the community, sparing no one, fear turns to suspicion, and suspicion finds a target: Willa Xylander. An artist whose hands create beauty from the wilderness, Willa's unique gifts make her an outcast, and now, the prime suspect in a witch hunt. Uriah Vollmer, the town's schoolteacher, is a man of logic and reason. As the panic escalates and his neighbors turn on Willa, he finds himself questioning everything he knows. The sickness doesn't follow God's patterns; it follows a path of human malice. Torn between his duty to the community and his growing feelings for the gentle artist, Uriah must uncover a truth buried for decades. But in a town where conformity is survival, defending the accused may cost him everything. Can he unmask the true evil before the community consumes an innocent soul?
