 Two couples. A fatal accident. And a decision that changes everything…

Kirsten and Nick are enjoying a weekend away until, on their drive home, they accidentally run over and kill a man. They should call for help – but they have too much to lose, and no one can know the real reason they’re here. Instead, they make a split-second decision to conceal the accident.

Amy and Greg have just celebrated their tenth wedding anniversary. Amy is expecting a baby, and they couldn’t be happier. So when Greg fails to come home from a dog walk one weekend, Amy knows the police are wrong to believe he left of his own accord. Someone must be behind Greg’s disappearance, and Amy won’t give up until she gets justice – or revenge.

If you had nothing left to lose, how far would you go to find the truth?

Playing Around

A courageous wife, mother, and resister confronts the devastation of World War II in a heartbreaking and hopeful novel by the best-selling author of The Venice Sketchbook and The Tuscan Child.

Londoner Madeleine Grant is studying at the Sorbonne in Paris when she marries charismatic French journalist Giles Martin. As they raise their son, Olivier, they hold on to a tenuous promise for the future. Until the thunder of war sets off alarms in France.

Staying behind to join the resistance, Giles sends Madeleine and Olivier to the relative safety of England, where Madeleine secures a job teaching French at a secondary school. Yet nowhere is safe. After a devastating twist of fate resulting in the loss of her son, Madeleine accepts a request from the ministry to aid in the war effort. Seizing the smallest glimmer of hope of finding Giles alive, she returns to France. If Madeleine can stop just one Nazi, it will be the start of a valiant path of revenge.

Though her perseverance, defiance, and heart will be tested beyond imagining, no risk is too great for a brave wife and mother determined to fight and survive against inconceivable odds.

Confucianism and Family Life:
In addition to Daoist philosophy, society in the Ming dynasty had been greatly influenced by the ethical philosophy of Confucianism for more than 1,500 years, and it was reflected in all areas of life, even in the layout of homes. Benevolence, education, and respect for elders and superiors were highly valued in Confucian philosophy, and homes were designed to reflect this through bright, sun-filled spaces for the most senior members of a household. Confucianism was also very influential in the roles of men and women in everyday life. Girls and women were expected to be humble and submissive (Yin), while boys and men were seen as active, strong, and dominant (Yang).

Education:
Confucius was also an advocate for the importance of education, which he believed turned people into good family members, responsible contributors to society, and good subjects of the emperor. Outside the home, ancient Chinese education was divided into official school education and private school education, both of which became places where talented boys were trained for a position in the ruling classes.
Boys began their studies at age three, and by fifteen were expected to have memorized passages from the Confucian classics and later neo-Confucian philosophers of over 400,000 characters. If they were skilled enough to pass the equivalent of high-school leaving exams, which many failed, they were considered ready to sit the official exams. In addition to the examinations, a Scholar was expected to learn the four key components of education: music, the strategic game of Go, calligraphy, and painting. Collectively, these were known as the Four Arts of a Gentleman.
