    Kaffee, Kuchen und ein Neuanfang
    Kaylie Flynn wurde in ihrer Kindheit von einem Pflegeheim ins andere geschoben, bevor sie bei Winton und May Wise ein Zuhause fand. Bei May lernte sie die Geborgenheit einer Familie kennen - und die heilende Kraft des Brownie-Backens. Jahre später hinterlässt May Kaylie genügend Geld, mit dem Kaylie ein eigenes Café in dem bezaubernden viktorianischen Haus eröffnen kann, in dem sie einst gemeinsam gelebt hatten.Zurück in Hope Springs ist Kaylie fest entschlossen, ihre Träume wahrzumachen. Aber sie kehrt auch zurück, um endlich eine Antwort auf die Fragen aus ihrer Vergangenheit zu finden.Schon bald erfahren Kaylies sorgfältig ausgearbeitete Pläne eine unerwartete Wendung: Das Haus bedarf einer viel umfangreicheren Renovierung als erwartet, und Tennessee Keller, der zuständige Bauunternehmer, sieht nicht nur sehr gut aus, sondern lenkt sie auch von ihren Nachforschungen nach ihren Eltern ab. Dann droht ein Ereignis alles zu zerstören, wofür sie so hart gearbeitet hat. Kaylie muss sich entscheiden, wofür ihr Herz schlägt: die Schatten der Vergangenheit oder eine vielversprechende Zukunft und die Liebe.

    Something Deeply Hidden
    From the Royal Society Winton Prize winner'An authoritative and beautifully written account of the quest to understand quantum theory and the origin of space and time.' Professor Brian Cox Quantum physics is not mystifying. The implications are mind-bending, and not yet fully understood, but this revolutionary theory is truly illuminating. It stands as the best explanation of the fundamental nature of our world.Spanning the history of quantum discoveries, from Einstein and Bohr to the present day, Something Deeply Hidden is the essential guide to the most intriguing subject in science. Acclaimed physicist and writer Sean Carroll debunks the myths, resurrects and reinstates the Many-Worlds interpretation, and presents a new path towards solving the apparent conflict between quantum mechanics and Einstein's theory of general relativity. In doing so, he fills a gap in the science that has existed for almost a century.A magisterial tour, Something Deeply Hidden encompasses the cosmological and everyday implications of quantum reality and multiple universes. And - finally - it all makes sense.

    Nicky & Vera
    In 1938, twenty-nine-year-old Nicholas Winton saved the lives of almost 700 children trapped in Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia-a story he never told and that remained unknown until an unforgettable TV appearance in the 1980s reunited him with some of the children he saved. Czech-American artist, MacArthur Fellow and Andersen Award winner Peter Sís dramatises Winton's story in this distinctive and deeply personal picture book. He intertwines Nicky's efforts with the story of one of the children he saved-a young girl named Vera, whose family enlisted Nicky's aid when the Germans occupied their country. As the war passes and Vera grows up, she must find balance in her dual identities-one her birthright, the other her choice. Nicky & Vera is a masterful tribute to a humble man's courageous efforts to protect Europe's most vulnerable, and a timely portrayal of the hopes and fears of those forced to leave their homes and create new lives.
