| Summary: | When an ambitious reporter takes a job in a town where nothing ever happens, bad things happen. Hallie Linden yearns to write for the New York Times. At the moment, she<U+2019>s stuck at a daily newspaper in tiny Green Meadow, Indiana, a town known for its amusement park and nothing else. It<U+2019>s 1989, and juicy reporting jobs are hard to find. She resolves to work hard, win a few awards, and then welcome the job offers. Hallie<U+2019>s beats are cops, courts, and schools. When the local D.A.R.E. officer<U+2019>s dog bites a schoolkid--at school<U+2014>Hallie learns that Green Meadow<U+2019>s townspeople have a reason for keeping quiet. A steamy and ill-advised liaison with a firefighter connects Hallie with sources who are eager to talk, yet also fear for their lives. Bull-headed, idealistic Hallie struggles to figure out who she can trust in order to get the real story. Told with gritty detail, Wrong Kind of Paper is a love song to ordinary people who decide to fight for what is right. |
