Englisher Kristie Matthews' move to an Amish family farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, couldn't have started on a worse note. The young schoolteacher is bitten by the farm dog, and on her trip to the local ER, she has a strange encounter with an old man who has just had a heart attack. The stranger asks her to do him a favor—to hold fast to a key he gives her with the explicit instruction that she tell absolutely no one about it. When her life is endangered, Kristie suspects a connection to the mysterious key. While she juggles solving the mystery of the key with staying alive, Kristie is also juggling her romantic life. Is her lawyer boyfriend, Todd Reasoner, the right man for her?

Gayle Roper
Author · 23 books
Gayle Roper rejoices every day that she gets to be a writer because she's in love with story. Even on the days that words rebel and have to be coerced onto the paper, there is nothing else she'd rather do. When readers like her work, it's like God says, "See? I knew what you were wired to do." When her books win awards like the Carol Award (Caught Redhanded) or the RITA Award (Autumn Dreams), the Holt Medallion (The Decision, Caught in a Bind, Autumn Dreams) or the Reviewer's Choice (The Decision), it's icing on the cake. And she gets to teach others how to write at conferences too. She spends a lot of time smiling. She is a member of American Christian Fiction Writers and Romance Writers of America and is the best-selling author of Hide & Seek and more than forty other books.
