Where does an 18-year-old Amish boy go when he 'jumps the fence'
during his rumspringa? What does he become? Who is he when he
returns? Prodigal, is about a young Amish teenager who leaves the
Amish community to pursue an education and finds himself, in a
unique career, abhorrent to the Amish. His father dying, he returns
home 25 years later. Clues involving secrets to his past begin to
emerge. Though Prodigal is about the mystery surrounding Samuel, it
most importantly is about his wife, Mary, an Amish widow with two
children. She is 16 years younger than Samuel, who is all but by
name English. Because of her husband's past, she enjoys and is
empowered with freedoms not afforded other Amish married woman.
Though she adheres to the tenants of her faith, Mary is also
strong, passionate and somewhat independent.
