Book Description
Usually students learning criminal law and procedure are confronted with several dusty cases presented through obstruse legal prose. Obstruse? What does that even mean? In "Dumb Criminals and Overeager Cops," Professor Zachariah B. Parry tells the story of how the U.S. criminal system was developed through the actions of, well, dumb criminals and overeager cops. Paralegals using this book will learn why the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Ernesto Miranda's conviction for kidapping and rape because the police did not properly inform him of his rights. Now, police across the country are required to inform all arrestees, "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law ...." Paralegals will learn the elements of dozens of crimes, along with potential defenses to these crimes using a variety of examples from real life and pop culture. This book has the primary goal of instilling in paralegal candidates a knowledge of the language and basic tenets of substantive and procedural criminal law. Recognizing that to learn, one must be engaged, the book conveys information in an easy-to-follow format with entertaining anecdotal examples so the law comes to life.

Book Description
A WWII-era Welsh barmaid begins a secret relationship with a German POW in this “beautiful” novel by the author of A Lie Someone Told You About Yourself (Ann Patchett). Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize Set in the stunning landscape of North Wales just after D-Day, this critically acclaimed debut novel traces the intersection of disparate lives in wartime. When a prisoner-of-war camp is established near her village, seventeen-year-old barmaid Esther Evans finds herself strangely drawn to the camp and its forlorn captives. She is exploring the camp boundary when an astonishing thing occurs: A young German corporal calls out to her from behind the fence. From that moment on, the two begin an unlikely—and perilous—romance. Meanwhile, a German-Jewish interrogator travels to Wales to investigate Britain’s most notorious Nazi prisoner, Rudolf Hess. In this richly drawn and thought-provoking “tour de force,” all will come to question the meaning of love, family, loyalty, and national identity (The New Yorker). “If you loved The English Patient, there’s probably a place in your heart for The Welsh Girl.” —USA Today “Davies’s characters are marvelously nuanced.” —Los Angeles Times “Beautifully conjures a place and its people, in an extraordinary time . . . A rare gem.” —Claire Messud, author of The Woman Upstairs “This first novel by Davies, author of two highly praised short story collections, has been anticipated—and, with its wonderfully drawn characters, it has been worth the wait.” —Booklist, starred review

Book Description
A con artist and seductress, Meredith Spooner lived fast—and died young. But her final scam—embezzling more than a million dollars from a college endowment fund—is coming back to haunt Leonora Hutton. The tainted money is stashed away in an offshore account for Leonora. And while she wants nothing to do with the cash, she discovers two other items in the safe-deposit box: a book about Mirror House—the place where Meredith engineered her final deception and a set of newspaper stories about an unsolved murder that occurred there thirty years ago. Now Leonora has an offer for Thomas Walker, another victim of Meredith’s scams and seductions. She’ll hand over the money—if he helps her figure out what’s going on. Meredith had described Thomas as “a man you can trust.” But in a funhouse-mirror world of illusion and distortion, Leonora may be out of her league…

Book Description
Is your retirement fund controlled by the government? If you have a 401(k), it is. We all know that the government doesn't generate money; it takes it. Yet if we're investing our money into a qualified retirement plan, such as a 401(k), then we're blindly entrusting the government to manage our future income. Conventional wisdom touts it as the best choice, the only choice really, if you want to have a retirement fund at all. Unfortunately, we discover too late that our hard-earned investment doesn't take us as far in our retirement as we thought it would. In Unshackled, author Zachariah Parry doesn't mince words as he opens your eyes to the reality of investing in a "qualified plan" and the limitations imposed upon your money. With the knowledge and experience only a seasoned attorney can offer, Parry exposes the truth about the conventional wisdom that has kept you broke. Within this book, you'll learn: - Exactly what a 401(k) and other qualified plans are - The difference between savvy (and legal) tax planning and tax evasion - The attributes of a perfect investment vehicle - A tried-and-proven way to quickly get out of debt - How to grow your money and keep more of it And much more! By the end of this book, conventional wisdom will be thrown out the window.

Book Description
A rollicking romp of a spy thriller from the acclaimed author of The Gone-Away World. • "A head-spinning cliffhanger that reads a bit like Harry Potter for grownups…. It would be a shame if no movie were made from this glorious piece of kaleidoscope-fiction." —The Wall Street Journal Joe Spork fixes clocks. He has turned his back on his father’s legacy as one of London’s flashiest and most powerful gangsters and aims to live a quiet life. Edie Banister retired long ago from her career as a British secret agent. She spends her days with a cantankerous old pug for company. That is, until Joe repairs a particularly unusual clockwork mechanism, inadvertently triggering a 1950s doomsday machine. His once-quiet life is suddenly overrun by mad monks who worship John Ruskin, psychopathic serial killers, mad geniuses and dastardly villains. On the upside, he catches the eye of bright and brassy Polly, a woman with enough smarts to get anyone out of a sticky situation. In order to save the world and defeat the nefarious forces threatening it, Joe must help Edie complete a mission she abandoned years ago, and he must summon the courage to pick up his father’s old gun and join the fight.
