It’s 1989 and journalist Allie Burns is growing up. Older and maybe wiser than the hustling young hack we met in 1979, she’s running the northern news operation of the Sunday Globe, chafing at losing her role in investigative journalism and at the descent into the gutter of the UK tabloid media. But there’s plenty to keep her occupied. The year begins with the memorial service for the victims of the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103, but Allie has barely filed her copy when she stumbles over a story about HIV/AIDS that will shock her into a major change of direction.

Not up to previous efforts

I am a long time fan and while this story had many excellent points, the author became a bit heavy handed with her social agenda and careless with syntax. Unfortunately, this took the form of nearly identical sentences used to frequently describe both the relationships of the heroine and of the villains. These shortcomings, in the words of author John Gardner, “interrupted the dream.”
