Good mystery! !! I really enjoyed the characters and Very good plot.
A quick fast read about murder in the news room. Good details and insight into the business of "telling the truth"; so to speak. Enjoy
John Rankin's day doesn't start as he expects as he arrives at work to discover a body. Then when his boss at the CBS station, Barry Burke, and Detective Richard Tracy arrive at the dead man's house another body is found. But what possible motive is there, what is the connection between the dead, and who is the killer(s).
The viewpoint of the story is from the studio's and their reaction to the news.
An enjoyable mystery, keeping my interest to see how it all turns out.
I really enjoyed this book. It's and insider's look at the workings of a local TV stations, as well as a murder mystery. The nighttime anchor is found dead in his chair and one of the new temps is found dead in the deceased anchor's bed at his house. No one can figure out how he got to the station, or how she got into his bed.
It's a fun mystery with an interesting solution that left me a little unsatisfied. I loved reading about the inner workings of how the news is produced. The characters were well drawn and the book was well written and very readable.
I recommend this book, it's a great way to spend the afternoon! Thanks to Koehler Books and NetGalley for the ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
“Murder at Broadcast Park” is a easy-to-read, lighthearted murder mystery that takes place in a television broadcast station. Rather than focus on the police detectives trying to uncover the murderer, the story focuses on the machinations and ambitions of those at the station from the job-hungry interns looking to boost their careers, to the news managers looking to break the big story even if it involves one of their own, the concerns about the competition getting wind of the particulars, the twisted relationships among the news staff. Much of it is obviously tongue-in-cheek.
