When wild child Sophie Deiner--the daughter of an Amish bishop--is
forced to return to Nappanee, Indiana, quilt-shop owner Jane Berger
is one of only a few who welcome her back. It's the last place she
wants to be, but Sophie's recent illness requires that she recover
for a while. As Sophie heals, she befriends a group of migrant
workers and is appalled to learn of the wretched living conditions
they're forced to endure. Sophie begins advocating on their behalf,
but soon finds herself opposed by an ex-boyfriend who is the farm
foreman. Jane begins relating the story of an Amish couple who
rescued survivors of the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, many of whom
were Irish immigrants. And Sophie is more convinced than ever that
she needs to fight for the powerless. But when digging deeper makes
conditions even worse, has she chosen a fight she can't win?
