Paper Daughter by Jeanette Ingold

One lie leads to another lie and all of a sudden you have weaved a web.  Is that how the quote goes? I picked up Paper Daughter to read thinking it was about a girl following in her father's footsteps in to newspaper journalism. It is to a point until Maggie takes on a summer intern job with the Herald, the local newspaper.    Her father is hit by a car and dies just a few weeks before the intern job is to begin. During her intern position Maggie is assigned to assist Harrison to track down a story. In tracking down the story she realizes her father was in the same neighbor as a killing.  Is her father invovled? Why was he in the part of town? Maggie wants to find out and undercovers more then she expected. 
Read the story, I enjoy it. A quick view into the newspaper business, an insiders look.
