A Hidden Hope
Dr. Ruth "Dok" Stolzfus needs help keeping her busy Stoney Ridge medical practice running, but the three young professionals she hires bring challenges no résumé could reveal. Easygoing Charlie, ambitious Wren, and nurse Evie each arrive with private motives and very different relationships to the Amish community. When the truth behind Wren's presence surfaces, the practice is forced to confront long-standing silence around difficult medical and mental-health issues. This contemporary Amish novel blends medicine, community secrets, intergenerational change, and the complicated work of caring well for people whose needs do not fit simple categories.
