One minute Mia Quinn is in her basement, chatting on the phone with a colleague at the prosecutor’s office. The next minute there’s a gunshot over the line, and Mia listens in horror as her colleague and friend Colleen bleeds to death. Mia’s a natural for heading up the murder investigation, but these days it’s all she can do to hold her life together. As a new widow with a pile of debts, a troubled teenaged son, and a four-year-old who wakes up screaming at night, she needs more time with her family, not less - and working Colleen’s case will be especially demanding.

Kaely Quinn's talents as an FBI behavior analyst are impossible to ignore, no matter how unorthodox her methods. But when a reporter outs her as the daughter of an infamous serial killer, she's demoted to field agent and transferred to St. Louis. When the same reporter who ruined her career claims to have received an anonymous poem predicting a string of murders, ending with Kaely's, the reporter's ulterior motives bring his claim into question. But when a body is found that fits the poem's predictions, the threat is undeniable.

Two little girls, frozen in black and white. One picture worth killing for. The Civil Rights Movement is less than a distant memory to Lisa Waldren - it is someone else’s memory altogether, passed on to her through the pages of history. Her life as a federal prosecutor in Boston feels utterly remote from the marches in the South that changed her father’s generation - and the entire nation - forever.

While home on Christmas break, a 17-year-old Senate page takes her dog out for a walk and never returns. Reporter Cassidy Shaw is the first to break the story. The resulting media firestorm quickly ensnares Federal Prosecutor Allison Pierce and FBI Special Agent Nicole Hedges. The three unique women are life-long friends who call themselves The Triple Threat - a nickname derived from their favorite dessert and their uncanny ability to crack cases via their three positions of power.

Publisher's Summary

TV reporter Erica Sparks has become a superstar overnight. But is it due to her hard work and talent? Or is she at the center of a spiraling conspiracy?

Erica Sparks is a beautiful and ambitious reporter who has just landed her dream job at Global News Network in New York. And while it was hard to leave Jenny, her cherished eight-year-old daughter, in the custody of her ex-husband, Erica is determined to succeed in the cutthroat world of big-time broadcasting. She can only hope her troubled past won't come back to sabotage her dreams.

Although the wounds from her divorce are still fresh, Erica can't deny the chemistry between her and her new producer, the handsome and empathic Greg Underwood. But a relationship is the last thing she wants right now. On her very first assignment, Erica inadvertently witnesses - and films - a horrific tragedy, scooping all the other networks. Mere weeks later another tragedy strikes - again, right in front of Erica and her cameras. Her career skyrockets overnight, but Erica is troubled. Deeply. This can't just be coincidence. But what is it? Erica will stop at nothing to uncover the truth. But she has to make sure disaster - and her troubled past - don't catch up with her first.

Strains credulity

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

No. The characters were all angel or demons, no one in between. And the story was interesting at first but kept getting more and more implausible.

Would you recommend The Newsmakers to your friends? Why or why not?

No, too hard to suspend disbelief.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Maybe, might be better as a movie.

Won't buy any more of Lis Whiel's books

I am so disappointed in The Newsmakers series! Lis Whiel's previous books did not have any foul language or sensual scenes. This first book was full of curse words and sexual innuendos. I've already purchased the second book in the series in Audiobooks, but am wary of listening to it if it's like this first one. I'm also disappointed in Thomas Nelson, a Christian publisher, for publishing a book of this nature.

Nail-biting story

Absolutely fantastic as with all your books. The narrator was fantastic. I hope this is the first in a series? May God bless you with many, many more stories

Narrator Misses the Mark

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

The Narrator for this book is terrible. The story is weak to begin with but a great narrator really could have made the book a pleasure to listen to.

Would you ever listen to anything by Lis Wiehl and Sebastian Stuart again?

Possibly

How could the performance have been better?

The performance could have been more professional with better voice inflection.
