Book Description
The 1991 war with Iraq is in its second day. In New York, legendary WBN anchorman Harrison Kiser is murdered by his mistress as millions watch on television. Days later, three journalists launch a desperate, rollicking, soul-searching battle to win the coveted $2.5-million-a-year anchor job. The combatants: David Sheldon, chief Tokyo correspondent. He is handsome, sophisticated and ambitious. His wife thinks he loves WBN more than he loves her. She may be right. Frank West, chief correspondent for WBN's primetime news magazine, "Perspective." West is rugged, aggressive and independent. His love life is a mess. He dates a fetching woman who already has a boyfriend. Marilyn Rhodes, chief Moscow correspondent. She flies to New York and demands a shot at the job. She gets her chance—delivering the news on WBN's "Morning Magazine." She quickly discovers she is stuck in the quicksand of office politics. It's a no-holds-barred battle for the fabulous anchor job—complete with scandals, sex, bombs and a murder mystery.
