Foster MacAult's grandfather has been missing for over half a century. A missionary, he disappeared in the remote mountains of the Middle Kingdom, China. Case closed-until Zee Yan, an attractive young Chinese woman, reaches out to Foster. Zee claims to have answers to the mystery of the missing grandfather; out of intense curiosity, Foster answers the call and arrives in unfamiliar territory, watched closely by unseen eyes.

Foster and Zee undertake a lengthy journey into the heart of the Middle Kingdom, searching for anyone who might remember the missing missionary. As they continue their investigation side by side, Foster begins to feel attraction toward Zee. But they're not alone; they're being watched. The unseen eyes belong to Private Investigator Jack Sun, hired to keep an eye on them-hired by a man with his own romantic feelings toward Zee.

"In the Middle of the Middle Kingdom" offers a thrilling mystery that strives to unravel a missing person report, as well as the intentions of the human heart. As Foster and Zee begin to make sense of his grandfather's fate, Jack Sun looms large. He is driven to separate Zee from the American man, as Foster's priorities in coming to China fall to pieces. Now only time will tell if they'll all get out of the mysterious mountains of the Middle Kingdom alive.

Rubrics are essential tools for all language teachers in this age of communicative and task-based teaching and assessment-tools that allow us to efficiently communicate to our students what we are looking for in the productive language abilities of speaking and writing and then effectively assess those abilities when the time comes for grading students, giving them feedback, placing them into new courses, and so forth. This book provides a wide array of ideas, suggestions, and examples (mostly from M ori, Hawaiian, and Japanese language assessment projects) to help language educators effectively develop, use, revise, analyze, and report on rubric-based assessments.
