"With tables of the cases and principal matters" (varies).
My summer in Tokyo just got a lot hotter... Getting a real-life chance with your old high school crush doesn’t happen every day. But then Finn O’Leary lends me five dollars and says I can buy him a coffee sometime to pay him back. I don’t expect to be buying him coffee in Tokyo. That’s what happens when your dad takes a job in Japan and drags you along for summer break. If I’d known Finn would be there, too, I’d have been thrilled, not resentful. Next thing I know, we’re exploring the temples and tangled streets of Tokyo together - sharing painful truths about my dead mother and his sketchy past. But the biggest surprise? Finn doesn’t think he deserves me. Even as we get close, he holds back, while I fall faster than a penny dropped from the top of Tokyo Tower. Unless I can convince him to see himself the way I see him, my heart is going to get crushed.
An aircraft carrier adrift with a crew the size of a small town. A killer in their midst. And the disgraced Navy SEAL who must track him down . . . The high-octane debut thriller from New York Times bestselling writing team Webb & Mann—combat-decorated Navy SEAL Brandon Webb and award-winning author John David Mann. A BARRY AWARD NOMINEE • “Sensationally good—an instant classic, maybe an instant legend.”—Lee Child The moment Navy SEAL sniper Finn sets foot on the USS Abraham Lincolnto hitch a ride home from the Persian Gulf, it’s clear something is deeply wrong. Leadership is weak. Morale is low. And when crew members start disappearing one by one, what at first seems like a random string of suicides soon reveals something far more sinister: There’s a serial killer on board. Suspicion falls on Finn, the newcomer to the ship. After all, he’s being sent home in disgrace, recalled from the field under the dark cloud of a mission gone horribly wrong. He’s also a lone wolf, haunted by gaps in his memory and the elusive sense that something he missed may have contributed to civilian deaths on his last assignment. Finding the killer offers a chance at redemption . . . if he can stay alive long enough to prove it isn’t him. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

Parents who want to be more involved in their child's education, who want to be aware of what their child should be learning, and who want to be an informed part of the education process, need to read this book. The first half of the book guides parents into an understanding of what a good education should look like--what skills and content children should learn, and the characteristics of a successful school. The second half is an action guide for improving education--keeping children from academic failure, raising standards, improving school safety, classroom teaching, and academic accountability. Each chapter stands alone, and together, the result is a handbook for the informed parent.
