Book Reviews of Kill the Story: a novelBook Review: Please Don't Kill This Story! Summary: 5 Stars
KILL THE STORY features Vance Wade, a newspaper reporter on the evening / night shift police beat. When a rival TV reporter gets killed, Vance winds up on the trail of corruption in the police department. This was a great read with a completely unexpected twist at the end. I'd like to see more of Vance Wade -- he's a character with a lot of potential in an interesting setting (Greenville, SC).
Summary of Kill the Story: a novelTwenty-six-year-old newspaper reporter Vance Wade is trapped between day and night. He goes to work each afternoon at 3, and as night falls, systematically visits the most disturbing happenings in Greenville, South Carolina: robberies, overdoses, killings - usually in impoverished, dangerous urban neighborhoods. Today, an attacker has stabbed a TV reporter - Vance's night-shift rival - in his suburban apartment, and Vance quickly gets a tip that Jim McDavid was working on a story that could have brought down the city police chief. To uncover what happened, Vance must vanish into Greenville's darkest corners, get that story himself - and publish it before the chief's men get to him.
