About the Book
J.D. Wickman has a thief stealing from his restaurant, a daughter struggling at college, a demanding mother in a nursing home, and he may be losing his sanity too. One tranquil evening, he takes off on a ride in the country and promptly has car trouble. This charming tale reminds readers God moves in mysterious ways.Book Synopsis
What J. D. needs is a little peace and quiet. He is trying to run two restaurants, keep his daughter from dropping out of college, and satisfy his lonely, aging mother. Cash begins to disappear from one of the restaurants, and he and his wife argue about how to deal with the problem.
One tranquil evening, J. D. takes off on a ride in the country to clear his mind. Top down, setting sun, wind in his hair ... leak in the radiator. When he walks up to an old farmhouse to ask for water, he finds a family living in poverty, and vows to help. When he returns with groceries, he can't find them or the house--although he's not lost. While J. D. struggles to make sense of this mystery, his behavior creates doubt in his marriage, and even his best friend thinks he's crazy. And when he solves it, his life is changed forever.
