Krátky popis
Jack McEvoy is at the end of the line as a crime reporter. Forced
to take a buy-out from the LA Times, he's got 30 days left on the
job. His last assignment? Training his replacement, a low-cost
reporter just out of J-school. But Jack has other plans for his
exit. He is going to go out with a bang - a final story that will
win the newspaper journalism's highest honor - a Pulitzer prize.
Jack focuses on Alonzo Winslow, a 16-year-old drug dealer from the
projects who has confessed to police that he brutally raped and
strangled one of his crack clients. Jack convinces Alonzo's mother
to co-operate with his investigation into the possibility of her
son's innocence. But Jack's real intention is to use his access to
report and write a story that explains how societal dysfunction and
neglect created a 16-year-old killer. But as Jack delves into the
story he soon realises that Alonzo's so-called confession is bogus,
and Jack is soon off and running on the biggest story he's had
since The Poet crossed his path twelve years before. This time Jack
is onto a killer who has worked completely below police and FBI
radar. His investigation leads him into the digital world of data
collocation services where server farms are watched over by techs
who liken themselves to scarecrows - keeping the birds of prey off
their clients' data. But Jack inadvertently set off a digital
tripwire and the killer - the Scarecrow - now knows he's coming...
