Description

In The Journalist, Michelle Williams leaves Newport, Rhode Island, for New York to pursue a career in journalism. Adjusting to life in the big city, she takes on her first serious assignment: interviewing Victoria Reed, a well-known New York lawyer. What begins as a professional opportunity becomes something far more unsettling when, just a few days later, Michelle learns that Victoria has been accused of murder. Driven by curiosity and a determination to uncover the truth, Michelle launches an investigation of her own. The accusation casts her recent interview in a new light, drawing the young journalist into a story that reaches beyond her original assignment. But Michelle’s new life is about more than work and unanswered questions. As she gradually finds her footing in New York, she meets new people and builds connections that could develop into something deeper than friendship. Her pursuit of the truth unfolds alongside the personal possibilities of starting over in an unfamiliar city.
