Tom Rosenstiel - The Good Lie
Executive director of the American Press Institute and a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, Rosenstiel put his day-job experience to stunning literary use in his exciting debut, Shining City. Bringing back several characters for his second international thriller, Rosenstiel follows the expert “fixer,” Peter Rena, and his partner, Randi Brooks, as they are once again called upon by the White House. This time, the president wants the truth about an attack on a shadowy American diplomatic complex in North Africa. But before Rena and Brooks can quell the conspiracy theories, Congress has opened hearings and, worse, a sensational exposé launches a full-fledged scandal. Caught in the middle, Rena learns the price of Washington secrets.
