    About this series

    When the partially dismembered body of a young man is found in the Florida Everglades, Deborah Jones, the fearless African American investigative journalist for the Miami Herald, finds herself caught up in a story that has ramifications far beyond anything she could have ever imagined.

    The victim had contacted Deborah anonymously just the day before, promising her top-secret government documents-the missing twenty-eight pages of the 9/11 report-if she'd agree to a meeting. But he didn't show up, calling to say he feared for his life.

    Deborah Jones is a woman not easily deterred by threats. But when a second person dies in mysterious circumstances, it is clear to her and to everyone on her newspaper that Deborah could be next on the assassin's list.

      Since her first day on the Miami Herald, rookie reporter Deborah Jones has been agitating for a shot at one particular story. William Craig is on Death Row, convicted of killing Senator Jack O'Neill's only son. There is no question of his guilt. Craig murdered the young man who was acquitted of raping his granddaughter. There are only five weeks and one day until his execution. And Craig has not given a single interview. Deborah Jones has assembled a whole dossier on the case, including court transcripts and every newspaper clipping. She wants to know what prompted Craig to exact revenge. And she has her own, very personal reasons for wishing to uncover the truth. Managing editor of the Herald Sam Goldberg is well aware that Senator O'Neill, a vengeful man, has powerful friends, some with Mob links. The two men have crossed swords on a number of occasions. But against his better judgement, he decides to give Deborah a chance to prove herself. Only with one warning-"Be careful. Florida may be the Sunshine State to most people. But it's not. It's a swamp. Don't ever forget that."

      Three Messages for a Man Who Wasn't There

      Oct 22, 2017

      It was a day for three extraordinary speeches by three extraordinary men, each with an important message for another man who was not in the room. Two former presidents, George W. Bush and Barack Obama, delivered speeches at separate events on Thursday that seemed pointedly to be aimed at current President Donald Trump -- while avoiding any mention of his name. That omission was prudent. As we have learned repeatedly, our tough-talking president can be as sensitive as a snowflake to even the mildest criticism of his self-described "winning" and "terrific" self. Yet it was in defense of his boss
