Irene Ingram has written for her father's newspaper, the Progress Herald, ever since she could grasp a pencil. Now she's editor in chief, which doesn't sit well with the men in the newsroom. But proving her journalistic bona fides is the least of Irene's worries when crime reporter Moe Bauer, on the heels of a hot tip, turns up dead at the foot of his cellar stairs. An accident? That's what Police Chief Walt Turner thinks, and Irene is inclined to agree until she finds the note Moe discreetly left on her desk. He was on to a big story, he wrote. The robbery she'd assigned him to cover at Markowicz Hardware turned out to be something far more devious. A Jewish store owner in a small, provincial town, Sam Markowicz received a terrifying message from a stranger. Moe suspected that Sam is being threatened not only for who he is...but for what he knows. Tenacious Irene senses there's more to the Markowicz story, which she is all but certain led to Moe's murder. When she's not filling up column inches with the usual small-town fare--locals in uniform, victory gardens, and scrap drives--she and her best friend, scrappy secretary Peggy Reardon, search for clues. If they can find the killer, it'll be a scoop to stop the presses. But if they can't, Irene and Peggy may face an all-too-literal deadline. 650 0 $a Newspaper editors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women newspaper editors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Antisemitism $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Conspiracy $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a Homefront news mystery. 941 $a 13 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010031739.0 952 $l KQPC446 $d 20230404015245.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20230314010157.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20230127010601.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230111010555.0 952 $l TRPE062 $d 20221230010722.0 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20221004020107.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220728014619.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220630010703.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20220517010528.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20220507010253.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20220405014029.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220319010028.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D502E3F6A74911EC86AC76D931ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
