Description

Two complete novels by G.M. Ford. In the novel Fury, Frank Corso was a rising New York Times journalist until a libel suit ended his career. These days he’s covering stories for the third-rate Seattle Sun. He owes the owner, Natalie Van Der Hove, and now she’s calling in her marker. A killer on death row might be innocent. If that’s the truth, Natalie wants the story-before the guy fries in six days. Corso won’t stop until he’s got all the facts. And when he goes to press, Seattle’s going to rumble with fury. In the novel, Black River Frank Corso, the only writer allowed to observe the proceedings of the high-profile, tight-security trial of a thug charged with sixty-three counts of murder, is in the middle of a media-circus – a real nightmare for a loner type like himself. And that’s before he finds out that his close friend, photojurnalist Meg Dougherty, is in Intensive Care after a run-in with a couple of hoods. It doesn’t take long for the smart, hardened reporter to realize there’s a mysterious connection between the story Meg was chasing and the courtroom spectacle he’s witnessing.Show more
