Book Overview
Cover Story: Still Deadly after All These Years is centered around journalist Joan Ross whose obsession with Jack Ruby puts herself and everyone in her circle in mortal danger.
The publishing world is struggling. Joan's beloved magazine, Relevant, has been losing subscribers and newsstand readers, and hemorrhaging cash-she is in jeopardy of losing everything. An investment firm throws her a lifeline, but she must also accept their aggressive fixer to make Relevant snappier, sexier, and less dependent on "think pieces"-basically her entire life's work.
Into this maelstrom arrive two young screenwriters who need her help-they are stuck creating a fully realized and unique mob character that's not reminiscent of Joe Pesci in . . . "Well, like, in everything," one tells her.
Joan suggests they model their character on the real-life Jack Ruby and they jump at her offer. She, too, is thrilled she can finally put her decades of research to some good. As she continue to dig through Ruby's past, she finds evidence that threatens to expose everything fictional in the Warren Report. But there are forces that still won't have that story told even now, and Joan has opened a pandora's box of death and destruction that she cannot bolt closed.
