Excellent story

The main character, Bill Ramey, is so well presented with the sense of integrity, he is like a friend. The story carries you along from the first chapter and offers many surprises. In the end this is a great story about the media and the manipulation of truth for the ratings wars.
Great Book!!

Would not be surprised at all that this kind of stuff actually happens. I feel like I see some of it in today’s news at times. A news producer gets caught up in the station manager’s need for ratings. A beautiful woman is missing, doesn’t matter if it can be verified…a senator is involved, could he have killed her…he secretly contacts the producer and threatens him…several attempts have been made…the producer loans his car to his coworker and it kills the coworker when it blows up….the producer discovers the beautiful woman story is a fake….so why the death attempts….a very good mystery.
A Rollicking Good Read
~ Frannie Babbon
It is a great political thriller and should make us all question what we see and read in the news.

This only reinforces my suspicions for years about the news!! As one ages and gains more experience rearing people the news appears more and more to be only in swipe arch of something they can exploit for sensationalism! There is no concern for privacy, or real people’s feelings, standing around to get a pic of a grave site or the spot on the pavement where someone died??? This isn’t news!! This book is awesome!!! God bless the reporters who do try to tell the truth!
