Description

In the seemingly idyllic Amish community of Paradise, Pennsylvania, the discovery of a dead infant shatters the peace and ignites a murder investigation. The prime suspect is eighteen-year-old Katie Fisher, an unmarried Amish woman facing charges for her newborn's death, despite her denials. Philadelphia defense attorney Ellie Hathaway, seeking a new direction in her own life, finds herself drawn to Katie's case, offering her legal expertise to a client who seems unwilling to be defended. As Ellie delves into the complexities of Amish culture and the secrets surrounding the infant's death, she confronts not only a challenging legal battle but also her own personal truths.
