However, Katie denies ever being pregnant. An 18-year-old, unmarried Amish girl, Katie Fisher, is charged with the murder of her newborn son. Police were able to find cloth fibers in the infant's mouth and throat, including bruises on the mouth, which leads them to conclude that he was suffocated. As the police investigate the death, they discover that the baby was not stillborn, but instead had died shortly after birth. The novel recounts the story of how a dead infant found on an Amish farm rocks the entire community.
