Summary:

Could the past be a patchwork for mending the present?

When wild child Sophie Deinerthe daughter of an Amish bishopis forced to return to Nappanee, Indiana, quilt-shop owner Jane Berger is one of only a few who welcome her back. Its the last place she wants to be, but Sophies recent

illness requires that she lay low for a while.

As Sophie recovers, she befriends a group of migrant workers and is appalled when one of them is detained and threatened with deportation. Sophie begins advocating on their behalf but soon finds herself opposed by an ex-boyfriend,

who is the farm foreman.

As Sophie finds respite from the world in the quilt shop, Jane begins to tell her the story of her Amish ancestors who rescued survivors of the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, many of whom were Irish immigrants. And Sophie is more convinced

than ever that she needs to fight for the powerless. But when digging deeper makes conditions even worse, has she chosen a fight she cant win?
