The Garish Sun - Paperback

by Craig Lancaster (Author)

Sonny Sturgis, Pulitzer Prize winner and the editor of a failing Montana newspaper, is tired and heartsick.

When the loathsome owner of the paper, Livingston Sloane, shows up one morning to say it's the end of the line for the newspaper and for the editor's career, Sonny faces a choice: Put out one last lame issue, as Livingston prescribes, or pull together his limited resources for a final blockbuster story.

With the help of his best reporter, Randi Hutch, and an unexpected newcomer, former football star and aspiring journalist Dexter Collins, Sonny decides he must unearth a story that demands to be told. To get it out to the people who need to read it, this ragtag crew must overcome corruption, the steadily ticking clock, and personal circumstances that have put Sonny on the sideline for too long.
