Lisa Harrison walks into the offices of The Rage believing she has scored the opportunity of a lifetime. The New York music magazine sits at the center of the industry, and Lisa can hardly believe they selected her for their internship program. Her excitement doubles when editors assign her to work alongside their most celebrated reporter. She will learn from the best, watching how the magazine's biggest stories come together. But Lisa discovers that success in journalism demands choices she never anticipated. The reporter she admires operates by rules that clash with her own values. Each assignment forces Lisa to weigh her ambitions against her principles. The magazine world that seemed so glamorous from the outside reveals itself as a place where getting the story can mean sacrificing pieces of yourself.
