John Book es un policía áspero, que da caza a sus colegas corruptos, acostumbrado a convivir con la violencia. Rachel Lapp es una bella viuda de religión Amish, pacifista, mansa. Sus mundos parecen divididos por una distancia astral, y sin embargo, sus vidas se conectan brutalmente por un asesinato del cual es testigo ocular el pequeño Samuel, hijo de Rachel. Así comienza un thriller magistral, donde a la descripción del mundo agrícola de los Amish se entrelaza la narración de la violencia metropolitana. El crescendo del peligro, representado por tres policías en colusión con el mundo de la delincuencia, alcanza en ocasiones tales picos que quitan literalmente el aliento.
