A successful entrepreneur in the mushroom industry, Jaakko Kaunismaa is a man in his prime. At just 37 years of age, he is shocked when his doctor tells him that he's dying.

Story
What makes life perfect? Insurance mathematician Henri Koskinen knows the answer because he calculates everything down to the last decimal. And then, Henri is faced with the incalculable. After suddenly losing his job, Henri inherits an adventure park from his brother - its troubling financial problems included. The worst of these issues appear to originate from big loans taken from criminal quarters and dangerous men are keen to get their money back. But what Henri really can't compute is love. He meets Laura, an artist with a joie de vivre and erratic lifestyle that bewilders him.

Story
Insurance mathematician Henri Koskinen has just restored order in his life, as well as in the adventure park he now owns, when a man from the past appears—and turns everything upside down again. More problems arise when the park's equipment supplier is taken over by a shady trio: Why won't Suomen Leikki Ltd sell the new Moose Jump to Henri when he needs it for the park's main attraction? At the same time, Henri's relationship with the artist Laura Helanto is reaching a breaking point.

Story
Henri Koskinen firmly believes in the power of common sense and order. That is until he moves in with Laura Helanto and her daughter. As Henri realises he has inadvertently become part of a group of local dads, a competing adventure park is seeking to expand their operations, not always sticking to the law in the process. Is it possible to combine the increasingly dangerous world of the adventure-park business with the unpredictability of life in a blended family? At first glance, the two appear to have only one thing in common: neither deals particularly well with a mounting body count.

Versicherungsmathematiker Henri Koskinen hat gerade sein Leben und den ererbten Abenteuerpark wieder in Ordnung gebracht, als ein Mann aus seiner Vergangenheit auftaucht und alles auf den Kopf stellt.

Und da auch in seiner Beziehung mit Laura alles immer komplizierter wird, steht Henri vor einer Rechnung mit allzu vielen Unbekannten.

Die Nummer 1 aus Finnland: Tuomainens Romane sind wie die Filme von Aki Kaurismäki: spannend, tragisch, humorvoll und schräg: Alles im Leben ist berechenbar. Davon ist der Versicherungsmathematiker Henri Koskinen überzeugt; beruflich wie privat kalkuliert er stets bis zur letzten Dezimalstelle. Doch dann verliert Henri seinen Job. Und erbt einen Abenteuerpark - mit ziemlich eigenwilligen Mitarbeitern und beunruhigenden finanziellen Problemen. Offenbar wurden riesige Kredite aufgenommen, bei zweifelhaften Kapitalgebern. Und die Herrschaften wollen nun ihr Geld zurück.

Story
For a generation, falling yields and soaring asset prices have boosted realized returns. However, this past windfall leaves retirement savers and investors now facing the prospect of record-low future expected returns. Emphasizing this pressing challenge, the book highlights the role that timeless investment practices—discipline, humility, and patience—will play in enabling investment success. It then assesses current investor practices and the body of empirical evidence to illuminate the building blocks for improving long-run returns in today's environment and beyond.

Henri Koskinen, der stets an Vernunft und Ordnung glaubt, zieht bei der Malerin Laura Helanto und ihrer Tochter ein. Trotz aller Turbulenzen scheint es für den Versicherungsmathematiker und Abenteuerparkbesitzer endlich aufwärtszugehen. Doch wie lässt sich die unkalkulierbare Realität einer bunt zusammengewürfelten Familie mit den permanenten Betrügereien und kriminellen Machenschaften im Freizeitgeschäft in Einklang bringen? Vor allem wenn es nur einen gemeinsamen Nenner gibt: die geringe Toleranz angesichts einer steigenden Zahl von Leichen.

Eine Kleinstadt im finnischen Nirgendwo. Der neue Investor hat den Ort in "Palm Beach, Finland" umgetauft, warum auch nicht? Alles erinnert an "Miami Vice" und "Baywatch": Die Namen der farbenfroh überstrichenen maroden Hütten, die hautengen Badeanzüge der Rettungsschwimmer, das überdimensionale Werbebanner am Ortseingang. Davon abgesehen unterscheidet sich das Küstennest kaum von den anderen traurigen Badeorten der Umgebung. Olivia Kosk ist nach gescheiterter Ehe gerade erst dorthin zurückgekehrt, als sie einen fremden Mann in ihrer Küche auffindet. Ermordet. Ziemlich unschön.

English is the world language, except that most of the world doesn’t speak it - only one in five people does. Dorren calculates that to speak fluently with half of the world’s 7.4 billion people in their mother tongues, you would need to know no fewer than 20 languages. He sets out to explore these top 20 world languages, which range from the familiar (French, Spanish) to the surprising (Malay, Javanese, Bengali).

Lex Gracie doesn't want to think about her family. She doesn't want to think about growing up in her parents' House of Horrors.

While hiking on a solo vacation in a remote, uninhabitable region of Arizona, Zachary Anderegg happened upon Riley, an emaciated puppy clinging to life, at the bottom of a 350-foot canyon. In a daring act of humanity that trumped the deliberate savagery behind Riley’s presence in such a place, Zak single-handedly orchestrated a rescue. What didn’t come out in the initial burst of publicity this story received is that Zak and Riley’s destinies were intertwined long before they improbably found each other.
