When crusading reporter Jerry Hampton’s explosive story gets spiked by corrupt publisher Martin Blake, she launches an ink-stained rebellion in Apex, California—but her headlines collide with Blake’s backroom oil fraud and Brice Regal’s flirtatious distractions. Armed with a typewriter and grit, Jerry exposes the tycoon’s schemes, outmaneuvers stone-faced businessman Sam Webster, and proves small-town presses roar back to life when truth’s on the frontlines.
