Description

When a mysterious faxed newsheet called “Dirt” begins circulating through the publishing world, Stone Barrington finds himself drawn into a high-stakes web of secrets, rivalries, and carefully planted rumors. Following a visit to the enigmatic Professor Samuel Bernard and an unexpected afternoon with the sharp-tongued, boozy New Jersey divorcee Lou Burch, Stone starts to connect the dots behind the gossip that everyone claims to hate—and everyone can’t stop reading. As the poison-pen columnist Amanda Dart, once feared for her ice-cold influence, suddenly discovers the tables have turned, the hunt for who’s manipulating the flow of information becomes as dangerous as it is addictive. With Stuart Woods’s brisk, witty style and a talent for turning social intrigue into momentum, this novel delivers a suspenseful, theme-rich look at power, reputation, and the perilous currency of truth.
