The News Where You Are (Paperback) $9.11 From the bestselling author of What Was Lost comes a spirited literary mystery about a television anchorman`s search for the truth about the disappearances that surround him Frank Allcroft, a television news anchor in his hometown (where he reports on hard-hitting events, like the opening of canine gyms for overweight pets), is on the verge of a mid-life crisis. Beneath his famously corny on-screen persona, Frank is haunted by loss: the mysterious hit-and-run that killed his predecessor and friend, Phil, and the ongoing demolition of his architect father`s monumental postwar buildings. And then there are the things he can`t seem to lose, no matter how hard he tries: his home, for one, on the market for years; and the nagging sense that he will never quite be the son his mother-newly ensconced in an assisted-living center-wanted.As Frank uncovers the shocking truth behind Phil`s death, and comes to terms with his domineering father`s legacy, it is his beloved young daughter, Mo, who points him toward the future. Funny and touching, The News Where You Are is a moving exploration of what we do and don`t leave behind, proving once more that Catherine O`Flynn`s writing "shimmers with dark brilliance" (Chicago Tribune). |
