A REVELATION IN AUTUMN by Wanda E. Brunstetter is book five in The Discovery Saga. There are six books in this series and each one is only 128 pages. This is the story of Luke and Meredith Stoltzfus. Months ago, Luke left Pennsylvania to travel by bus to his uncles farm in Indiana. Along the way, he is met with tragedy and Meredith is left wondering how she is ever going to survive without him. Meredith is struggling with a difficult pregnancy and missing her husband who they say has been declared dead.

Meredith has had her baby, a boy she names Levi Luke. Levi for her grandfather and Luke for her husband. Jonah and her sister Laurie delivered the baby in the buggy on the side of the road. A bit uncomfortable but it probably happens all the time in the Amish community. Mother and baby come through just fine. After a little time has gone by Meredith decides that for financial reasons, she is going to rent out her house and move back in to her parents. She needs her family around her for support and everyone agrees it is a good move. They are all in love with Levi already and want to send more time with him and Meredith.

Jonah's feelings for Meredith are growing more and more every day and he even lets his parents know. He tells them he won't act on them until he is sure Meredith is ready. He is going to ask her if he can court her? Later, he will bring up marriage which is what he really wants. Meredith is torn between her feelings between Jonah and the fact that she still loves her husband. What would Luke want her to do? Would he want her to be happy? Is she supposed to mourn him forever?

Meanwhile the man they call Eddie has agreed to move into Susan's, his nurse, with her and her sister and their grandparents. He doesn't need to be in the hospital anymore and has nowhere else to go. They graciously offer him a roof over his head and in return he can help them with odd jobs around the house. He is hoping that being in a family atmosphere might help him regain his memory.

As with the other four books in this series, A REVELATION IN AUTUMN ends in a cliff hanger that will have you going straight to the next and final book, A Vow of Always. Wanda does a wonderful job of describing the Amish way of life and their traditions. This series has a way of making you think about tragedy and grief and how you would handle or did handle it. Would you do things differently? Could you put your faith in God the way the Amish community does? I can't wait to get to the last book and see how Wanda wraps it all up.
