What's that saying about the devil you know? For Bernadette Murphy, it's the devil she never expected that changes everything. Her father's sudden death leaves a gaping void in her life and is one in a series of events that rock her world. But with the discovery of her father's book of cryptograms, Bernie realizes his encoded lessons in living may be exactly what she needs to survive. When Bernie finds herself in trouble at home, out of work, and banned from the mall after a confrontation at the cosmetic counter, she discovers what her father always knew. In life, you either choose to sing a rainbow, or you don't. For Bernie, the singing is about to begin.

Book Description
In the cafeteria of a Frankfurt gallery Anna Amalia Reitner is surprised to meet Jago Nicholson, whom she had last seen when she’d accidentally disrupted the celebratory reception of one of his company’s MRI machines at the Oxfordshire hospital where she works. He is pleasant, if a shade distant, so that when weeks later he telephones her office quiet, gentle Millie, overworking in the aftermath of her mother’s death, is, again surprised. However, she is happy to drive to his children’s school, take over supervising the children from their teacher Adelaide Thomas and remain with them until Jago arrives. It is clear that Jago loves his children and Flora and Henry love him. Millie, asked by Flora if she would like to come back with them to their house, is disappointed to have to refuse but meets Jago once again at Covent Garden. She is with her colleague Cecilie Kemp Smith’s cousin Philip and Jago is with his cousin Laura Fitzgibbon. When Philip, Jago and Laura realise that Millie has travelled to London by public transport Jago offers her a lift back to where she has left her car. The children, he tells her, would like to invite her to a summer fair at the manor house home of Adelaide Thomas which is next door to his own property, and this time she is delighted to accept. The event is a huge success. The children learn more about the gaps in Millie’s knowledge of her German family, while Millie is charmed and amazed by their absorbed interest in everything around them and delighted when Jago arrives in time for tea. He has further problems arranging the occasional supervision of Flora and Henry and Millie offers to help, not explaining that this will prevent her CEO, Walter Hemingway, from worrying about her long working hours. Millie tells Jago something of what she knows about her grandfather and his death during the second world war; Jago tells her about the death of his wife. Millie, an only child, learns that Jago has a sister, a brother-in-law and nephews, and many cousins. Increasingly involved with the children and becoming friendlier with Jago, Millie, now wondering if Walter is interested in Mrs. Thomas, Adelaide’s mother, is struck down by flu and taken care of at Jago’s house, where she meets his sister and brother-in-law. Once fully recovered she is taken to meet Jago’s uncle, Hector Nicholson, a considerable landowner and art collector. On the evening of the reception Jago takes Millie in his arms so that she arrives at the reception in a daze of happiness. She meets, briefly, Laura Fitzgibbon, then Hector, who is eager to show her his collection of paintings, drawings, and other works of art. With a mixture of shock and disbelief she recognises work by her grandfather; hitherto supposed to have been destroyed, it has been obtained for Hector by Jago from bank in Switzerland. Stunned, she asks Jago to take her back to her car; insisting on taking her home, he asks what she has seen that has so upset her . . . At her house for the first time, he immediately recognises a painting which is clearly by the artist of the works on Hector’s walls. Told that before and immediately following her grandfather’s death everything he did or wrote or made was destroyed, Jago immediately assures her that Hector’s works were not stolen, but, concerned that she may express similar suspicions to the children, he advises her to make no such assertions, that she is wrong and plainly knows nothing of Hector or indeed of him. He lashes out asking if all her friendliness has been in order to obtain what might in other circumstances have belonged to her. When he spells out the history of Hector’s works of art, he tells her that at the time of his own transactions he had never heard of her grandfather. Despite their unresolved conflict and mutual absence of trust he sends a note asking her to accept if she wishes to so an invitation from the children to join them at Tate Modern on a trip for family and friends. Jago, arriving towards the end of the outing, impersonally thanks Millie for her kindness. She in turn experiences devastation that the wall of distrust that has sprung up between them…and every time she sees following, it becomes more difficult to hide her feelings for him. Can there be a happy ending….?

Book Description
In one earth shattering moment, Sheldon Henry Stottz's near perfect life is changed forever. The influenza epidemic of 1918 had already taken many lives, but now it had resulted in the untimely death of his wife, Lila and their newborn, Rose. In what seemed like a single breath, the people Sheldon Henry loved the most where gone, and his rock-solid faith shaken to the core. Why was God letting this happen? What had he done to deserve such agony, such utter pain? "I've always been faithful." he thought, "I have always believed." Just when he thought things could not get worse, they did. At the graveside service of his beloved family, Sheldon Henry is suddenly arrested on suspicion of being a German spy. "This can't be happening." he thought, "Not here. Not now." Still in shock over the deaths of his beloved family, he is ripped away and immediately transported to a military prison for questioning. "Why God?" "What have I done to deserve this?" "Is this a test?" "Is there something you are trying to teach me?" "Have I done something wrong?" "Tell me, Father, please tell me." In the days that follow, Sheldon Henry is tested to the limits of his personal and spiritual endurance. His confusion over what has happened, and the isolation of prison, only amplify his unbearable sense of loss. He dreams of Lila. Her voice. Her tender touch. She is always on his mind even though he knows she is gone forever. Shortly after his release from prison, Sheldon stumbles upon a young woman in tears. She's deeply broken, and while trying to offer some comfort, Sheldon suddenly realizes that God has spared him for a purpose; a purpose he would perhaps soon understand.
