About this ebook
When Hannah refuses to forgive a terrible sin she becomes anathema--shunned. But the real question is, can she forgive herself?
Visitors come to Parke County, Indiana to enjoy the lush farms, to buy the Amish quilts, and to experience the peaceful ways of the Amish families who live there. But when a double murder rocks this quiet community, the Amish residents resolve to forgive even this unfathomable offense.
Hannah, however, finds forgiveness out of reach--both for the murderer and for herself. She harbors a secret shame: while the crime was committed in her own home, she was out meeting with her forbidden love, her English beau, Reece.
The elders of the community insist that Hannah must forgive her family's killer or be shunned. When Hannah refuses, she runs away with Reece, leaving behind the only life she's ever known.
Years later, Hannah must journey back to the place she no longer calls home. Can she find the forgiveness and belonging she so desperately desires?

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This mystery kept me guessing to the very end. I was glad for the happy ending.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Anathema pulls you in from the very first page and doesn't let you go until you close the book. I found the characters to be true-to-life... flawed like you and me. Full of suspense, twists and turns, as well as a sweet love story. The notes about the quilt patterns before each chapter were really fun. I love ALL Colleen's stories and this one was no exception. I highly recommend the book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I really liked the way this story dealt with the Amish way of life. It is about Hannah Schwartz, who leaves her Amish way of life after her parents are murdered. She finds the fellow she ran off and married to be an abusive husband. She leaves him when she thinks her just born baby has died. Now skip ahead 10 years and Hannah is back in Indiana, searching for her child? and the answers to her parents murder. Highly recommend this book!!
