I am woman, hear me roar — Helen Reddy
Will Bristol never intended to be editor-in-chief of Eyewitness News in downtown Portland. He had planned to coast through his senior year as an investigative reporter, build his portfolio, and go out to a newspaper somewhere to start his career. When there was no one else to do it but an unqualified white supremacist who wanted to dismantle the newsroom piece by piece, Will knew he had to step up. He was terrified he wasn't good enough. The white supremacists that had infiltrated the university campus security weren't done. Not by a long shot.
This is the third omnibus in Newsroom PDX, a political suspense series about a college newsroom in downtown Portland during some of the most tumultuous times the city has ever faced. Meet Will Bristol, the reluctant editor-in-chief; Bianca Parks, whose face on the nightly news has made her a target; and Ben Waters, who has always done what his tribe has asked, even now, when he's asked to come home.
Foul language. Some sex. Lots of politics. Rather like the city itself.
This omnibus includes: Do the Job, Hear Me, and Miss You.
O autoru
L.J. Breedlove is a former journalist writing mysteries and thrillers about what she knows: complicated people, small towns, big cities, cops, reporters, politicians, assorted bad guys.
L.J. grew up on a cattle ranch and then went to college to be an oceanographer. She decided getting seasick was not a good trait for any oceanographer to have, and discovered journalism instead — a field that liked people who asked questions!
As a reporter and editor, she worked in Alaska, Oregon, Idaho, Texas, and Washington, D. C. — places that have become the sites for her books. She got homesick for the Pacific Northwest and came home to work with college newspapers and teach journalism.
She is an over-educated, bleeding-heart liberal with a penchant for heroes such as Jack Reacher. She isn't particularly bothered by the inconsistency. Some of her thrillers have werewolves in them — that doesn’t faze her either.
You can follow her on Facebook at ljbreedlove. Best place to find her — besides a local coffee shop — is at ljbreedlove.com. You can sign up for her email newsletter there!
