The Sea of Japan

More than 3.6 million teachers are employed in US private and public schools, with thousands more employed in schools in countries across the world. Commercial and recreational saltwater fishing in the United States supported 1.83 million jobs in 2014. An estimated 2 million of US adults meet the criteria for pathological gambling in a given year. Another 4-6 million would be considered problem gamblers. Fifty years ago, most Americans had never heard of sushi; today, there are nearly 4,000 sushi restaurants across the United States today, grossing over $2 billion annually. In 2013, the author received a Nikkei (Japanese Wall Street Journal) Award for Contemporary Novel and sold 50,000 copies of a missing-child-thriller, Kamikakushi. The Sea of Japan is his second book written in English.
