How far would you go to keep a secret?
Susan Wiggs new novel, BETWEEN YOU & ME (WilliamMorrow) about two very different cultures, comes at time when our country is deeply divided.
Deep within the peaceful heart of Amish country, a life-or-death emergency shatters a quiet world to its core. Caught between two worlds, Caleb Stoltz is bound by a deathbed promise to raise his orphaned niece and nephew in Middle Grove, where life revolves around family, farm, faith–and long-held suspicions about outsiders. When disaster strikes, Caleb is thrust into an urban environment of high-tech medicine and the relentless rush of modern life.
Dr. Reese Powell is poised to join the medical dynasty of her wealthy, successful parents. Bold, assertive, and quick-thinking, she lives for the addictive rush of saving lives. When a shocking accident brings Caleb Stoltz into her life, Reese is forced to deal with a situation that challenges everything she thinks she knows–and ultimately emboldens her to question her most powerful beliefs.
Then one impulsive act brings about a clash of cultures in a tug-of-war that plays out in a courtroom, challenging the very nature of justice and reverberating through generations, straining the fragile threads of faith and family.
BETWEEN YOU & ME is exactly what readers have come to expect from Susan Wiggs. An emotional story of love and loss, family and friendship and the journey we travel to discover our heart’s true path.

Haven’t read anything by Susan Wiggs but this sounds like she could be able to run with the likes of Jodi Picoult and Lisa Scottoline and those are my never miss, always read authors. Would love to put Susan on that list.
