Book excerpt: Nine-year-old Sarah is excited about summer vacation, but she faces unexpected crises when her best friend Paige becomes old enough to join a local girls' clique, and when she makes choices which affect her relationship with an elderly blind neighbor. This summer nine-year-old Sarah is dreading the first day of summer vacation. It will be her best friend's birthday, and stuck-up Valerie Miller will ask Paige to join her silly Double-Digit Club, a group that ignores girls who are not ten yet. If Paige says yes, Sarah will have no friends for the whole summer because her birthday isn't until the end of August. Even though Sarah and Paige have promised to be "last, best, and only friends," Sarah is not sure Paige will be able to pass up the chance to be accepted by the most popular girls in school. In this heartfelt novel, a girl discovers the meaning of true and honest friendship and learns to face the future as a wiser and more open person

Book excerpt: In their 1995 blockbuster The Discipline of Market Leaders, Michael Treacy and Fred Wiersema explained how great companies dominated their markets by offering superior value propositions. Now Treacy is back with an equally groundbreaking book—revealing how great companies master growth each year and how all businesses can identify and exploit opportunities for increased revenues, gross margins, and profits. Treacy's main point is simple—it really is possible to grow your business by 10 percent or more, year after year, in good times and bad, without cheating. Great companies already know how to do it, and the rest of us can learn their strategies and do the same thing. Using case studies from industry leaders such as Dell Computer, Home Depot, and GE, he shows the five steps that are imperative to ensure growth: • Keep the growth you have already earned • Look for growth where it's likely to be found • Take business from your competitors Treacy believes that any business can grow at a consistent double-digit rate, and with Double-Digit Growth, managers and investors now have the tools to achieve that lofty goal and maintain corporate success.

Book excerpt: Lieutenant Jed Davies of the LAPD was enjoying his first cup of coffee of the day when the call came in that would change his life and the lives of some of his closest friends. A body showing up in the Hollywood hills is no big deal. Homicides were a normal occurrence in the sprawl of Los Angeles. However, this particular homicide would set in motion a massive hunt for the killer, a hunt that would engage the entire country, bringing together the forces of the FBI and local law enforcement in a race to track down the killers before they strike again. As Davies and his colleagues delve deeper into the horrific crime, they become embroiled in a web of deceit, treachery, blackmail, and revenge that threatens the lives of innocent people. Author George Hess takes you on a roller-coaster ride in this fast-paced thriller filled with stories of love and death that will keep you up late into the night. You will be unable to put the book down as the plot twists and turns leaving the reader guessing until the very end.
