770. Holly Watt - To The Lions


Paddy recommended this, having heard the author on Women’s Hour. Although it has been widely praised, I thought it was rubbish, well that may be overstated.

Young, sexy, female journalists taking on male moneyed corruption, as if a story in the press is a vindication or solution. Wealthy establishment men fly to Libya on a private jet to shoot refugees in a camp as a form of sport. Our intrepid journalists follow them there, con them implausibly into witnessing the event and return to London defying all odds to publish the story. I am afraid just silly.
