Based on actual events, this story is set in a newspaper office in
Eastern Montana in 1926. A time when the American public was
obsessed with newspaper horror stories of what most today would
consider ordinary murders or other man-made catastrophes. Anything
that could contribute to the roar of the Roaring 20's was
commercialized, became sensational news overnight, and newspaper
fodder for many days thereafter. Hence, a flood that could destroy
a town became a front-page event. More than anything, Alex wants to
be a journalist for a major metropolitan newspaper. A field
dominated by men. Harriet Quimby and Nellie Bly notwithstanding.
Although she's covered other front-page stories, including a murder
of a much loved and respected rancher, this flood will affect
everyone living in Sunset Valley, if they survive. When this life
changing story falls into her lap, her editor threatens to assign
it to a more seasoned male reporter, or maybe cover it himself.
Alex becomes frustrated at being cast aside and is determined to
hold on to her right to cover the breaking news. Her story will
ring true to all women who have been passed over in favor of a male
associate, those who didn't give in and broke through the glass
ceiling, and inspire women who are just getting their feet wet in
their careers.
