From New York Times-bestselling author Gaby Dunn comes a story of an ambitious young reporter and the potential murderess who will change her life.
Cub reporter Madison Jackson is young, scrappy, and hungry to prove that she deserves her coveted college internship at the premiere newspaper in town, The Boston Lede where she fetches coffee for the night crew and dreams of her own byline. So when her police scanner mentions a brutal murder tied to a prominent Boston family, Madison races to the crime scene, looking for the scoop of the century.
What she finds instead is the woman who'll change her life forever: Dahlia Kennedy, celebrity socialite, now widow, covered in gore and the prime suspect in the murder of her husband and child. When Dahlia refuses to talk to anyone but Madison, they begin a dangerous game of cat and mouse that leads the young journalist down a twisted path.
From Gaby Dunn (Bad with Money, I Hate Everyone But You) and Claire Roe (Batgirl and the Birds of Prey, Welcome Back) comes an all new original graphic novel about the thrill of the chase and the dangers of going toe-to-toe with a potential killer.
Dark, gritty graphic novel about an ambitious reporter who becomes too caught up in her goals and compromises her ethics as a result. The main character is totally unlikeable, but I thought it suited the story. It was nice to see a messy, imperfect queer lead in a story where her sexuality wasn't the primary focus.
Content warnings: mention of (child) sexual assault, mention of child pornography, government corruption. The main character roofies a source to get them to talk. Gore. Visuals related to suicide.
