The healing : an Amish romance / by Byler, Linda,author.;
"John is the youngest of seven boys and is constantly overshadowed by his big brothers who seem to all be stronger, smarter, and better looking than he is. As a teenager, he knows he's overweight and is sure he'll never be popular like his brothers are. But those struggles are nothing compared to the battle he is about to fight. After weeks of feeling exhausted, depressed, and achy, he has no idea what's wrong with him and begins to wonder if he'll be miserable for the rest of his life. By the time he is finally diagnosed with Lyme disease, his body is failing and his spirits are nearly at rock bottom. When John's older brother Samuel begins dating Lena Zook--John's eighth grade teacher--he tries to be happy for them, but it's hard not to feel jealous. With all his health issues, John figures he'll be lucky if he makes it through rumschpringa at all; he doesn't dare hope to date anyone as lovely and smart and fun as Lena is. Determined not to continue burdening his family, John begins to discover a quiet inner strength, even as his body falters. Recovery seems far off, but he nurtures a glimmer of hope that God has not forgotten him. And is it his imagination, or is Lena starting to spend more time with him than she's spending with Samuel? Torn between following his heart and the fear of tearing his family apart even more, John's struggles seem to only get more complicated, even as that glimmer of hope fans into flame." -- page [4] of cover.

But Esther isn't the only surprise guest. A mysterious Amish woman confronts Emily claiming to know about her secret shame--the child she had as a teenager who was given up for adoption.

Later that evening, the woman reappears--dead in Esh Family Pretzels, with a threatening letter written by Esther found on her body. Emily knows her sister is not a murderer and convinces Bailey to help clear Esther's name and put the squeeze on the real killer...
