Winner of the 2006 Christy Award for Contemporary Fiction
Dusk. An Amish farm in Ohio. Will's father doesn't recognize him at first--it's been eight years--so he holds a match up to Will's face to see him better. "I thought you were dead," Levi Mullet says, then blows out the match and walks away.
This is not how it's supposed to be. Where's the fatted calf? The party?
For years, Will has worked to overcome the ban of his father and the Old Order Amish community. Only now, when the life of his own son hangs in the balance, does he begin to see the truth--that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness the proof of love.
Levi's Will is the mesmerizing story of an Amishman seeking to build a bridge across three generations.

reviewed Levi's Will on May 24, 2015 Levi's Will
In 1943, Will Mullett leaves his pacifist Amish community and his domineering father to find a new life. He joins the military, marries, and starts his own family. He can't completely leave his roots behind him though, and after years of estrangement from his father, discovers he doesn't want to. Levi is slow to accept the return of his prodigal son, and Will's frustration with trying to earn his father's forgiveness affects his relationship with his own two sons, especially younger son Riley. It's not until Riley's life is hanging in the balance does Will begin to truly understand his father.
I really enjoyed this story. I've read quite a bit of Amish themed fiction, but this is not your typical story in this genre; it's not one of those that is all "fluff and romance"; in fact, there is barely any romance in this story at all; instead, it is a story that focuses on family relationships, especially that of father and son. Many of the issues that are touched on in this story could apply to any family in any culture, not just the Amish.
