If there's one thing Joan Dixon knows about herself, it's that she
is a damn good journalist. But when she is laid off from yet
another soon-to-be-shuttered newspaper - and even the soulless,
listicle-writing online jobs have dried up - she is left with few
options. Closer to 40 than 30, single, living with her parents
again, Joan decides she needs to reinvent herself. She goes to work
as a junior copywriter at Bloom, a tech startup where her bosses
are all a decade younger and snacks and cans of fizzy water flow
freely. Joan has a steady paycheck and a stable job for the first
time in years. She befriends a group of misfit coworkers and even
begins a real relationship, after years of false starts. But once a
journalist, always a journalist, and as Joan starts to poke beneath
Bloom's bright millennial surface, she realizes that she may have
accidentally stumbled into the scoop of her lifetime. Is she
willing to throw away her fresh start for the sake of the story?
