Sanctuary
312 pages · First published 2001
Melissa James comes to Amish country carrying a secret and seeking a place where she can disappear from the danger behind her. The quiet community offers temporary refuge, but relationships with the people who welcome her make continued deception increasingly difficult. As her past moves closer, Melissa must decide whether sanctuary means hiding forever or trusting others enough to face what she fears. Beverly Lewis combines Amish setting, Christian themes, suspense, and emotional healing in a stand-alone story about safety, truth, and the difference between isolation and genuine refuge.
