Pinwheel - Brett Perkins - Bog

As a self-styled press agent, the audacious Exlee Ellis makes it his business to know who's doing what, to whom, and why-so he can sell the juicy tidbits to the daily papers of Stout City, Iowa. It's a living, and as the Depression ravages the nation, that's no small thing. When Exlee comes up with a tantalizing story about the city's biggest employer-Pinwheel Coffee-Stout City Sun editor Deacon Lowe knows it might boost circulation and save the floundering paper from doom. But if the story turns out to be a scam-as Deacon fears-the Sun might never recover. It seems that someone is scheming, but who and why? A funny, charming story about life, love, and making the social scene in the 1930s Midwest, the third installment in Brett Perkins's delightful Stout City series mixes up a fizzy, intoxicating cocktail.
