Tina Davidson is three-and-a-half when she is adopted from her foster home in Sweden by a visiting American professor. Soon she is the oldest of five children, living with her mother and stepfather in Turkey, Germany, and Israel. She studies music and becomes a prolific pianist and composer. But something about her birth remains unnamed and hidden. When she returns to Sweden, she contacts the Swedish adoption agency. "Come," says the voice on the phone, "I have information for you."

In Let Your Heart Be Broken, Tina Davidson juxtaposes memories, journal entries, and insight into the life of an artist-and a mother-at work. Along the way, Davidson meets Ernest Hemingway and Carl Sandburg, survives an attack by nomads in Turkey, and learns her birth father is a world-famous scientist. And throughout, there is the thread of music, an ebb and a crescendo of a journey out of the past and into the present, through darkness and into the light.

"The composer Tina Davidson has given us such a beautiful, poetic, and illuminating memoir of her artistic and personal life. Hers is a life fully examined and I found her journey both fascinating and deeply satisfying." -Amazon Reviewer

Told across braided timelines, In Darkness and Light traces Tina’s life from a fiercely hopeful Jewish girl in Romania to a woman shaped by the horror of war and loss and the pursuit of a better future.

As antisemitism tightens its grip on the cusp of World War II, young Tina is drawn to the promise of communism, joining an underground movement that seems to offer justice in an increasingly hostile world. When Tina and her family are deported to a desolate village in Transnistria, she endures unimaginable hardship, emerging changed, her convictions strengthened.

In the years that follow in a newly communist Romania, Tina enrolls in medical school. She meets Iulian, a brilliant writer and devoted party member whose blindness shapes how he sees the world and how he understands it. Their love is deep and real, grounded in a shared belief of an equitable society they are trying to build for their country and their young daughter.

But history intervenes. The corrupt and often violent methods of the regime begin to surface, and Tina is forced to confront a growing unease—about her country, her ideals, and herself. After a shocking loss, the only choice remaining is to seek a path forward.

At once a sweeping love story and a profound tragedy, In Darkness and Light explores the powerful allure of ideology and the difficult reckoning when ideals clash with the realities of life.

"A tender, clever, and engrossing remembrance... Wohl expertly integrates the backstory of his relationship with his father into an account of the extraordinarily chaotic events that he and his siblings navigated as they scrambled to honor their atheistic dad's final request for "a proper Jewish burial." The work is engagingly edgy, employing an unusual combination of unresolved anger, poignancy, and witty sarcasm." - Kirkus Reviews

Told by a tart-tongued young woman with a love of Bruce Springsteen, Lies in Bone is at once a mystery and coming-of-age tale fueled by dark secrets involving love, murder, and the truths worth lying for.

On Halloween 1963, eleven-year-old Chuck Coolidge and his brother Danny are lost in a toxic smog covering the steel town of Slippery Elm, Pennsylvania. When the smog lifts, half the town is sick and twenty people are dead. And Danny is missing.

Now, over twenty years later, Chuck's teenage daughter Frank plots escape from this "busted and disgusted" town. When a murdered child is found in the river, investigators link the crime to the disappearance of Danny in '63, and Frank's life is turned upside down. In the face of her worst fears, she must uncover her family's dark past if she wants to keep her sister Boots from the hands of The State. Led to discover the unimaginable truth about Danny's disappearance, Lies in Bone culminates in a shocking eleventh-hour reveal and an emotionally charged finale.

"The fantastic, fallible characters leap to life in these dialogue-filled pages and draw readers into an immersive world involving mysteries of missing children, mental illness and unsolved murders. A gripping tale of outcasts that keeps you guessing and, more importantly, caring how it will unspool. Mystic River meets Stranger Things in this engrossing debut novel." —Lane DeGregory, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, The Girl in the Window

Eighteen-year-old Raissa and her siblings must flee home after their parents succumb to influenza and their homeland descends into political violence. Raissa's remaining family escapes together under cover of darkness, but passionate, stubborn Raissa feels bound to her home by sweet and sorrowful memories. She risks everything to stay behind.

Although her heart lies within her childhood home, a new family forces her out, driving Raissa deep into a mysterious forest. With only animal companions to salve her loneliness, Raissa's displacement and grief drive her to commit an unimaginable crime of maternal longing.

A Beautiful Land is a story of family ties strained, severed, and strengthened. It is a story of displacement and the depths to which the maternal imagination stretches.

"Miller's A Beautiful Land is rich in detail, often mythical in nature, timeless in relevance, and beautifully, thoughtfully, written. I feel as if I've been on a journey. She takes us into worlds we cannot see and reveals them. As with Indigo Rose, her ability to convey the human condition through character and events is as compelling as it is meaningful. I was drawn deeply into the story." —James Meyer, author of These Fair Days
