1867. Growing up among the Pennsylvania Amish, Joshua knows that his father is a respected church deacon-- but he also has a weakness for drink, and has violent rages. After a disastrous fire, Joshua runs away from home and embarks on a decade-long journey to California. His mother, Miriam, is forced to become head of the family when her husband is unable to recover from the fire. She never gives up hope of seeing Joshua again... but will he ever be able to face his father?
