O knihe

Carl Lyon is on assignment as a sports reporter for the Colorado Sentinel. His last assignment it seems as two guys in ugly bow ties announce the Sentinel is closing with the next edition. Bitter at what has happened to the business he loves, Carl is still not ready to give up. He believes there has to be a place where people still want and need newspapers. A former colleague offers Carl a job in Big River, Minnesota as managing editor for a staff of millennials and Mona. Every community newspaper should have, or does have, a Mona. Carl doesn't like editors. Now he is one. He isn't particularly fond of the newest generation of reporters either. Through a Convergence of Events, events that test the skills and will of the entire staff of the Big River Beacon, Carl's faith in the craft and importance of newspapers is restored. Convergence of Events explores timely issues, including sports-related concussions, chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), mental health, and college athletics. A liberal U.S. Senator, an eccentric national weather reporter, the young athlete's devastated parents and other former Big River State University athletes are interwoven into the story of Carl Lyon's rebirth as a passionate newspaper journalist.
