A Murdered Judge. A Dark Secret Silenced.
Rookie reporter James Lalonde is bored. And he isn't a journalist. He's an all-round dogs-body to the chief editor, Rhys Kelly.
But his luck has finally changed.
After eavesdropping in on the morning editorial meeting, James learns he has his first-ever story. There's one catch. If the story gets too complicated, it will be taken away from him and given to another journalist with more experience.
Sure, it's a boring interview with resident judge, Albert Harrington on the eve of his appointment, but it finally gets him out of his six-month slump as an editorial research assistant.
He finally has a chance to prove himself.
The following day, James turns up to his interview with Albert to discover a trail of blood smeared through Albert's house, an empty safe, the murder weapon on the floor, but no body.
Detective Anwar Khan turns up at the crime scene, puts two and two together, and believes James murdered the controversial resident judge.
Can James clear his name and write his first-ever story before his editor takes it away from him?
If you enjoy gripping, character-driven mysteries full of secrets, betrayals, and twists, you'll love the first instalment in the Rookie Reporter Amateur Sleuth Mystery series. Start reading The Reporter at the Gate today.
