While not a thriller, per se, this is a riveting story about misogyny and gender politics in journalism. Two women, one an editor and the other a rookie reporter face the fallout when a celebrity ends up dead because of their paper’s underhanded tactics. Someone has to pay for the paper’s transgressions and rookie, Jess is determined to make sure the right person pays the price, regardless of their gender

Sandie Jones's most recent book is about Me Too and the good old boy network that still rules the profession of journalism. As Jones used to be a journalist, I enjoyed the behind-the-scenes look at the newsroom. It's scary to realize how easily an owner of a paper can manipulate what is reported.

I wouldn't consider this one a thriller, there's just some light suspense. While the message is interesting, the plot moved somewhat too slowly for my taste. Things pick up by the end, but at that point I wasn't feeling particularly connected to either character.

I did love that Jones narrated the audiobook herself. It's one of my favorite things when authors narrate their own work!
