Great Lengths

By S.E. McGee

Dangerous political rhetoric creates chaos for a small island community in Maine, causing life and death changes at the local newspaper. Set on the fictional island of Enchantment in Maine, the story centers around The Westgate Weekly newsroom, and the lives of its reporters and editors. The novel begins with the arrest of a beloved island resident, which causes shock and paranoia among the town's citizens. Meanwhile, reporters at The Westgate Weekly struggle to meet deadlines and survive lawsuit threats. Off the island of Enchantment, the leading gubernatorial candidate continues to tweet about "fake news" and spread slanderous remarks about dentists and reporters, including writers at The Westgate Weekly. A young reporter also finds himself attracted to the new female barista - a lovely Steampunk fan - who tests him in a cruel way. This mix of mystery, romance, and suspense concludes in tragedy for its characters. A modern satire, Great Lengths presents a fictional tale about how dangerous political rhetoric leads to deadly consequences.
