Meanwhile, Mattie’s son—the only one who really knows what happened—clings to life in the hospital, unable to communicate. Desperate for answers, Kate slowly uncovers the trail of a stone-cold killer—one who is likely living among the Amish, and calls into question everything and everyone Kate has ever known…
