Dear Librarian, Can a murder mystery present intrigue, offer robust entertainment, and still educate readers about major issues of our day? DEADLINES both can, and does! First and foremost, DEADLINES spins a suspenseful tale about a dangerous conspiracy to steal a beautiful stretch of California shore, and transform it into a private enclave. And en route to its dramatic finale, DEADLINES underscores a looming threat: the temptation to sell off our public heritage to patch budget holes. DEADLINES also celebrates the endangered American newsroom, and reveals the importance of good journalism in a functioning democracy. I'm Paul McHugh, I was a reporter at a major metropolitan daily for more than twenty years. I put much of my best lore about resources, politics, and newsrooms into DEADLINES.
