A beautifully written book about family, forgiveness and love.

The story is set in an Amish community of Stoney Ridge, where Penny and her brother, Micah, are taking care of their grandmother's farm. Micah is field guild for birders, finding rare birds in the area. Penny also runs a guesthouse for the birders. Ben Zook writes bird books and has traveled the world finding rare birds. He hears of a white-winged tern spotted in Stoney Ridge and hires Micah to guide him to find it. Ben and his cousin, Natalie, travel to Stoney Ridge in search of the bird...and more. For Ben, it's a return home and back to terrible memories of why he left the Amish and Stoney Ridge. Natalie is getting over a divorce and losing her tv career and finds her way to move on in Stoney RIdge.

So many story threads are running through this story, but intertwine into a gently crafted story. Micah's field journal entries enhance the stories and carry so much information.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for a temporary, digital ARC in return for my review.
