Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
A school shooting and groundswell of demand to arm teachers moves the satire of suburban America into the Trump era in Book 2 of this series. Anthony, the reporter from First World Problems, becomes the focus. When he submits his report that it was unarmed teachers who subdued the assailant while two parents who had claimed to be armed for personal protection fled the scene, his publisher deletes those details. It’s not what the public wants to read, and, besides, as Anthony finds out, the Ledger publisher is lending his support to a pro-gun, anti-immigrant politician in return for a favor. The assailant had aimed his gun at a parent in a hejab. But a mystery develops when it is discovered that, although a teacher was wounded, it was not the assailant’s gun that fired the shot. Bea, an evangelistic School Board member, falsely claims she saw the woman in the hejab fire the shot, and it’s up to Anthony to prove the woman’s innocence and find out who actually shot the teacher. The publisher’s daughter leaves the paper—and Anthony—to take up with a TV news anchor and starts broadcasting false reports that stir up fear of terrorism. Anthony falls in love with her replacement, the beautiful Pari, who encourages him to keep reporting the truth despite the publisher’s threats to fire both of them. Together they reveal how Bea and her cronies have worked to cash in on the fear of terrorism they helped to spread.

Book Description
Another novel of international love and intrigue by the prize-winning author of A Hundred Veils. In 1969 Japan, Emiko's father has gone to Tokyo to support students protesting the Vietnam War—but hasn't come back. Then suddenly her mother dies. Alone and in despair, twenty-year-old Emiko abandons her factory job to go searching for her missing father. To survive in Tokyo, she stays at a hostel in the seedy Sanya neighborhood and takes a job as hostess in a bar where she’s required to “talk cute,” which goes against her grain. She’s previously refused an offer to become the second wife of the rich Genji, twice her age, who had been in love with her mother. But when she’s fired and out of money, in desperation she goes to Genji’s office, hoping for a loan. Genji has something else in mind. Emiko nearly gives up finding her father when she meets Juan, an American soldier recovering from a battle injury. Now she's in love with a soldier in the war she and her father have been denouncing for years. Uncertain Luck provides a vivid picture of the persistence of love at a time of political conflict in Japan.
