An Amish woman is shocked when she learns of the siblings she never knew existed in the first Lost Sisters of Pleasant Valley novel. With no memory of her birth parents, or the tragic accident that took their lives, Lydia Beachy has always been grateful for the aunt and uncle who took her in and raised her as their own. Now a married woman with two sons, Lydia finds her life turned upside down when she discovers that she has two younger sisters: Susanna, who was adopted by an Amish family in another community, and Chloe, who was raised by their grandmother among the Englisch. Angry and confused, Lydia first seeks out Susanna but stops short of telling her the truth. To track down Chloe, she enlists the help of a neighbor who has spent some years in the Englisch world. Meanwhile, Lydia's husband, Adam, is keeping a secret of his own. Lydia yearns to be united with the sisters she has never known, but will revealing herself to them tear their lives apart...or enrich them beyond all imagining?
In 500 years, we have learned little about preventing sexually transmitted diseases. Why? Because many of us believe that they are God's Judgment. Five centuries separate the appearances of syphilis and AIDS. Nevertheless, the human response to the epidemics proves that society has learned little about coping with sexually transmitted diseases. Both were labeled God's Judgment by contemporary zealots. Both epidemics appeared mysteriously. New findings make it doubtful that Columbus's crew brought syphilis back from the New World. The Human Immunodeficiency Virus existed long before it caused the "Gay Plague." English, French and Russian ruling dynasties were terminated by syphilis. The social response to both diseases included blaming and exclusion of the affected, denial of the extent of the disease, scientific bickering, retribution for becoming infected, and charlatans with cures. Both infections caused terror...but not enough to change sexual risk-taking. Thrill seeking men and rebellious women are more likely to seek sex when they are lonely. Author Perry Treadwell describes society's response to these "social diseases" and synthesizes some of the writing about syphilis and AIDS. He selects some of the social and scientific issues common to both epidemics. To follow both of these infectious diseases is to expose the human foibles that make history and novels interesting, but inhibit the institution of preventive measures.
