Investigating the murder of a rapist who was freed on a technicality, rookie reporter Jessica Mitchell uncovers four similar murders that reveal the determined acts of a group of retribution seekers.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
A good, solid journalistic thriller. Not as good as Handberg's first novel, Savage Justice, nor his two later books, Malice Intended and Dead Silence, still, Handberg, who was news director at the formerly great Twin Cities WCCO television station (come back, Ron! Come back!), obviously knows the business of TV news and the feel of the Twin Cities. His books are always great "beach books." Smart, crisp, entertaining.
One Reason Why Cops Hate Reporters
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
Jessica Mitchell, a new reporter for channel 7, has just witnessed her first story. A man named Edward Hill was brutally murdered. AND NO ONE KNOWS WHY! Sarah Andrews, a lawyer as well as feminist and activist, is leading a rally for safer streets. Her roommate Kim, was a victim of a rape only a year previously, by a man named Edward Hill. Jessica wants to get involved in the story, but the police and the lawyers want her away from it. But she persisted. She refused to give up. A REALLY GOOD BOOK by the author of SAVAGE JUSTICE.
