About this book

The Highly Anticipated Conclusion to The Tinderbox As the only daughter Sylvia Miller of The Tinderbox has always held a special place in her Old Order family one Adeline Pelham jeopardizes when she shows up at the Millers Hickory Hollow farm. It isnt that Adeline means to be a threat but her very existence is a reminder of the painful secret that has so recently upended the Miller household. And with Sylvia and her mother still struggling to come to terms with that news this is a challenging time to welcome an Englisher--especially this Englisher--into their midst. Despite the Millers unexpected hospitality Adeline is well aware that shes treading on Sylvias turf and she feels guilty about doing so when Sylvia is grappling with issues of her own. Not only is Sylvia trying to rebuild her trust in her father but shes uncertain what to make of her once-promising engagement to Titus Kauffman who hasnt pursued her since she confronted him. Adeline wishes she could help Sylvia but shes not sure that either she or Sylvia is ready for that level of closeness in their relationship. Can God make something good come out of the mistakes of the past? Or does Adelines arrival mark one too many surprises for the Millers and their Amish community?
