The Hidden City

From Brian Bartlett, author of the literary espionage thriller Pursuit of the Crescent Moon (Book Four of The Crescent Moon Series), comes a powerfully narrative yet factually convincing account of a modern American myth...

Jordan Prichard may very well be “the best damn African-American investigative journalist The Washington Post ever had,” but at this particular moment in his career he is its fallen angel. Fifty-eight-years-old, forced out of the most coveted job in all of print journalism and blacklisted out of hard news altogether for allegedly fabricating a story, Jordan finds he’s dangerously overqualified for anything else and forced by health care reality to take the only offer open to him; namely, a “tryout” with The National Reporter.

A borderline tabloid publication of enormous financial resources, The Reporter has unwittingly placed a world-weary yet instinctively tenacious Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist on the path to perhaps the greatest news story of all time.

But will anyone believe him?
