The Dying Hour
“He needed to catch up on a few things. And start digging into Cull’s background, he thought, stepping into the newsroom.
He stopped at the bulletin board to consider a frontpage tear sheet with Astrid Grant’s child survivor feature, displayed next to Ben Randolph’s investigation on city hall. One of his own stories from Hanna Larssen’s farm in the Rattlesnake Hills was up there too.
Astrid’s piece was circled with bold, red marker. Next to it, a large handwritten note said Terrific, moving read...! Superb writing, Astrid! A thick red arrow pointed to Ben Randolph’s article and an accompanying note. Solid, first-rate, hard-hitting investigative work, Ben! The notes were signed by Neena Swain, the Mirror’s assistant managing editor. Our interns raise the bar! Swain had added.
It was known to the staff that Swain thought little of crime reporting. Understandably, Jason’s story had not warranted a word of praise. It was just there.
Jason shook it off.
