About Elizabeth
Award-winning author Elizabeth Byler Younts writes historical fiction for Harper Collins/Thomas Nelson. She gained a worldwide audience through her first book Seasons: A Real Story of an Amish Girl. She is also the author of the Carol award-winning novel The Solace of Water, critically-acclaimed novel The Bright Unknown, and The Promise of Sunrise series. She has consulted on Amish lifestyle and the Pennsylvania Dutch dialect for two award-winning television shows. Elizabeth lives in Central Pennsylvania with her husband, two daughters, and a small menagerie of well-loved pets.
“I knew Elizabeth Byler Younts was a wonderful writer, but her lyricism, empathy, and psychological understanding of the broken human condition took The Bright Unknown to a whole different level. I didn’t read Brighton’s story for mere endorsement; I read her story because her plight haunted me. This is the kind of journey that has the power to change lives.”
