About this eBook

Should a journalist ever become a participant in the story he is covering? Thats the ethical dilemma facing Clint Stockton in Fifteen Minutes of Fame, the exciting first novel by Gary Watson.

Clint, top reporter for the Advocate, a second-rate daily newspaper in Atlanta, is already at odds with his wife over his job when he begins following two murder investigations - the beating of a homeless man on a downtown street, and the shootings of three big-rig truck drivers. As his workload mounts and his personal life becomes even more stressful, Clint uncovers information about the killings that brings him to a choice. Does he remain merely a reporter who covers the news, or does he get involved and end up making the news? His career, his relationships, resolution of the crimes and even life and death are on the line as Clint struggles to make his decision.

About the author

Twenty years of journalistic experience helped Gary Watson craft “Fifteen Minutes of Fame.” A 1971 graduate of West Georgia College with a degree in English, Watson worked for several small newspapers in Georgia, reporting on thousands of colorful people and interesting situations, some of which helped shape the characters and plot of “Fifteen Minutes of Fame.” Even though he changed careers in 1989, Watson never lost his zeal for writing and his desire to be a novelist. Publication of “Fifteen Minutes of Fame” fulfills a lifelong dream for Watson. The author lives in Villa Rica, a growing community 37 miles west of Atlanta with his supportive wife Suzanne, grown, independence-asserting children Kelli and Hayley and three precious kitty cats. Watson takes enough time from his writing to serve as director of public transportation for Douglas County, Georgia.
