Eli Yoder, a misguided Amish youth in Pennsylvania, leaves home during rumspringa, shamed by his unwillingness to forgive the man who killed his sisters. In the Outside World, a surprising friendship teaches Eli how to laugh again and prepares him to confront the biggest questions of his life — how to let go of the past. Holly Payne, author of The Virgin’s Knot, wrote the book for the drunk driver who sought forgiveness after leaving her unable to walk for nearly a year.
