Reading 2009 - Eyes at the Window by Evie Yoder Miller

Evie Yoder Miller has created a story that follows a community and its families brought together and pulled apart by the murder of a small child. For fifty years the effects on the people involved are told in multiple character voices against a background of pioneer movement west and the Amish church at the time. The event was real but the next 50 years to the real ending are told in a way that puts you inside the lives of those affected.

If you enjoy historical fiction about American in the early 1800's you will want to find this book published in 2003.
