Críticas:

"As for Lis Wiehl's newest story, The Newsmakers, the mystery is physiologically and gripping at the same time. Wiehl ends the story in a cliff-hanger, begging for the next book to hurry up and be released." * Book Talk at Fiction 411 * "Wiehl's insider knowledge of the television news industry gives this novel credibility and excitement beyond the everyday tale." * RT Book Reviews * 'Fox News' legal analyst Lis Wiehl puts her experience to splendid use in 'The Newsmakers,' a tale that masterfully takes her quasi-alter ego, Erica Sparks, across the line from reporter to subject after she saves the life of a presidential candidate during an interview. This in the wake of her covering a Staten Island ferry disaster that may or may not have been an accident. The fun lies in watching Sparks pursue the nagging feeling that these two events may be somehow connected, uncovering a conspiracy of 'Seven Days in May' proportions at the expense of hers and her daughter's safety. In that respect, the thus ironically titled 'The Newsmakers' harks to the best of Robert Ludlum's paranoid tales of shadow governments and secret cabals, as well as classic political thrillers like 'The Parallax View' or 'Three Days of the Condor.' That's a high bar to set, but Wiehl is more than up to the task in crafting a superb page-turner as provocative as it is scary. * Providence Journal * "The Newsmakers is sure to grip readers and open their eyes to the intense field that is journalism." * CBA Retailers + Resources * 'This book is distinctive, with a terrific plot and an imperfect main character who is spellbinding. Kudos to Lis Wiehl for imaginative, yet absolutely believable in this `me' world, great writing. Wiehl has distanced herself from the pack with this one." * Suspense Magazine *

Reseña del editor:

TV reporter Erica Sparks has become a superstar overnight. 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 empathetic 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.
