The Top Job

You’d kill for it. . . The chair has been left empty – an unexpected, unsolved tragedy – and The Potomac is looking for a new editor-in-chief. Celine knows she’s earned this. When the job is hers, she’ll be ready to speak truth to power and refocus the newsroom on hard-hitting journalism. McCall has put in the work. Decades of paying her dues, smiling through gritted teeth and suffering as a woman in a sexist field. Finally, it’s her turn. Jay gets what he wants. Whether at work, with women . . . or with women at work. And while his debts and bad choices may be catching up to him, there’s no way the job’s not his, right? When the magazine's billionaire owner Bobby Rockport invites all three candidates to his Aspen estate for a final test, tensions are sky-high, and everyone has something to hide. It’s anyone’s guess who will make it out with the coveted top role . . . that is, if they make it out at all.
