Like most people, I follow what's going on in our country via social media. I had read posts on the stories covered by Mr. Pringle and his staff at the Los Angeles Times. In reading the excerpt of "Bad City", I found myself wanting to learn more about what happens behind the scenes in investigative reporting. This novel certainly did not disappoint! Not until I read "Bad City" did I begin to have an understanding of what a career in journalism entails. It was also mindboggling to read about the extent of corruption taking place throughout this novel. If this had been a fiction versus and non-fiction story, I would have felt that the corruption was "over the top". What comes to mind, is what other corruption is taking place around the world that is being covered up? How many investigative reports have been "swept under the rug"? Really makes you think!
Mr. Pringle did an amazing job in writing this novel. If you are looking for a good non-fiction, makes you think story, I would definitely add this one to my must read list!
