PDX Portland 2021 Spring

Just Do the Job

I am woman, hear me roar — Helen Reddy

Will Bristol never intended to be editor-in-chief of Eyewitness News in downtown Portland. He had planned to coast through his senior year as an investigative reporter, build his portfolio and go out to a newspaper somewhere to start his career. When there was no one else to do it but an unqualified white supremacist who wanted to dismantle the newsroom piece by piece, Will knew he had to step up. He was terrified he wasn't good enough. The white supremacists that had infiltrated the university campus security weren't done. Not by a long shot.

This is the third omnibus in Newsroom PDX, a pollical suspense series about a college newsroom in downtown Portland during some of the most tumultuous times the city has ever faced. Meet Will Bristol, the reluctant editor-in-chief; Bianca Parks, whose face on the nightly news has made her a target, and Ben Waters, who has always done what his tribe has asked, even now, when he's asked to come home.

Foul language. Some sex. Lots of politics. Rather like the city itself.

This omnibus includes Do the Job, Hear Me, and Miss You.
