賓州蘭卡斯特郡東天堂鎮的費雪一家,過著純樸的阿米緒生活。然而清晨一具在穀倉裡發現的死嬰,卻大為震撼這個與世無爭的小鎮。案件業經警方調查之後,所以間接證據指向嬰兒生母為費雪家年僅十八歲的凱蒂,同時亦為殺嬰的嫌犯。堅稱並未懷孕生子亦未殺嬰的凱蒂,該如何才能替自己洗刷冤屈?
而來自都市的辯護律師艾莉.海瑟薇,一心想懷孕卻天不從人願,卻在親友委託下接下這樁棘手的殺嬰案,天人交戰的她,又該如何放下心中成見全力為凱蒂辯護?
The discovery of a dead infant in an Amish barn shakes Lancaster County to its core. But the police investigation leads to a more shocking disclosure: circumstantial evidence suggests that that eighteen-year-old Katie Fisher, an unmarried Amish woman believed to be the newborn's mother, took the child's life.
When Ellie Hathaway, a disillusioned big-city attorney, comes to Paradise, Pennsylvania, to defend Katie, two cultures collide—and, for the first time in her high profile career, Ellie faces a system of justice very different from her own. Delving deep into the world of those who live 'plain', Ellie must find a way to reach Ellie on her terms.
As she unravels a tangled murder case, Ellie also looks deep within - to confront her own fears and desires when a man from her past comes back into her life.
